Bath re-enamelling for Garnant homes

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Garnant

We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It normally takes one visit, and can be used again the next day. We work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a peeling or bubbling previous coating.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

What happens on the day

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It usually takes the best part of a day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Ensure the room can be ventilated
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Related advice

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we can’t do too:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • A bath split right through the body

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

Materials we repair

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

How to look after the repair

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Respect the curing time we give you

Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

When to call us in Garnant

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Look out for any of the following:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Stains that will not shift
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

What affects the price in Garnant

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:

  • How much damage there is
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Why repair rather than replace?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price 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 book with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • Work done at your home or business
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Garnant questions

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.

Are there extra charges for Garnant?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Garnant?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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