Trusted bath re-enamelling in Coity Higher

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface without moving it. Prices start from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What you get with us

  • Work done at your home or business
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

About our bath re-enamelling in Coity Higher

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We are often asked to fix wear marks under the taps and a roll-top that’s seen better days, in Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.

All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Bridgend.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes the best part of a day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  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.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice

Landlord and trade work in Coity Higher

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Coity Higher as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

When to call us in Coity Higher

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.

Clients usually contact us about:

  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price

How to look after the repair

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

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, and the outside can be refinished too.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match

Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from photos

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Coity Higher

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Do you hold any accreditations?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there a call-out fee?

We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

Do you cover Coity Higher?

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

DIY repairs versus a professional job

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
