Trusted bath re-enamelling in Coedffranc

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Bath re-enamelling in Coedffranc without replacing anything

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about chips and rust in more than one place and an outdated colour you’d like to change.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Coedffranc as everywhere else we work.

When we would advise against a repair

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Materials we repair

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

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:

  • How much damage there is
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How easy the damage is to reach

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Send pictures for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SA10 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Coedffranc

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

What to look for in a quote

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • What preparation is included
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • When it can be used again

How to compare quotes

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

The process

Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Related advice

DIY repairs versus a professional job

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Repairing versus replacing in Coedffranc

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing usually wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why us?

  • Normally one visit, start to finish
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Everything repaired in place

Coedffranc: your questions answered

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Will it make a mess?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

How long does re-enamelling take?

One day for most baths, ready the next day. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
