Bath re-enamelling at your home in Coedkernew

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a coating lifting around the plughole and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, with the bath back in use the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Why us?

  • Nothing taken out or refitted
  • Typically one visit, start to finish
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK

How it works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes the best part of a day. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Coedkernew questions

Which areas do you work in?

We cover the whole UK, including Coedkernew and the rest of Newport. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.

Do you charge for travel?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

What affects the price in Coedkernew

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Coedkernew. The price depends on:

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Doing more than one item at once

Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How to get a fixed price

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

  • Any details about the material
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Work for landlords and builders

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Roll-top and period baths

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