FAQs for Cwm-y-glo

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

Will the new finish last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Will there be fumes?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is there a guarantee?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

How to look after the repair

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Get any chip repaired quickly

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

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

What affects the price in Cwm-y-glo

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Cwm-y-glo. The price reflects:

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Quotes from your photos

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • Something in shot to show the size

We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

How the visit works

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes most of the day for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the next day.

How to prepare

  • Open a window if you can
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Work for landlords and builders

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

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, then guarantee it for a year.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Cwm-y-glo?

Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

Common reasons people in Cwm-y-glo contact us include:

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean

10 questions to ask before booking

When a repair is not the answer

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

Why repair rather than replace?

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What you get with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
