How we handle bath re-enamelling in Llam-march

If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is normally the most cost-effective option. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Typical jobs include a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and lots of chips and rust spots, across cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Llam-march and across Monmouthshire.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

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

Surfaces we repair

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

Repair or replace in Llam-march?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Nothing taken out or refitted

Take a look at our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • Access to the area
  • The material
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A photo taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • What it’s made of, if you know

We price from photos so you don’t 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Llam-march

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

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Common problems we fix in Llam-march

Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing

What your quote should include

  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • How your room will be protected
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

How it works

Arrival times are agreed in advance. On site, it takes the best part of a day in most cases. We leave the room clean.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Getting a price

Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Llam-march, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Advice

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.

Common questions in Llam-march
