Bath re-enamelling in Coed Ystumgwern without replacing anything

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and an outdated colour you’d like to change.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Coed Ystumgwern and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

How it works

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Getting a price

For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

DIY kit or professional repair?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Coed Ystumgwern. The price reflects:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The type of damage
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

If you’re in Coed Ystumgwern and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

What we can’t put right

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we repair

  • Acrylic baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Victorian roll-tops

When to call us in Coed Ystumgwern

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

  • How the colour is matched

Choosing a repair company

Coed Ystumgwern: your questions answered

How long does re-enamelling last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Do you cover Coed Ystumgwern?

We do. We send a technician to Coed Ystumgwern for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Repairs by material

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
