Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • The material
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Getting a price from pictures

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • Details of any past repairs
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Llanbradach: your questions answered

How long will the bath be out of use?

Most baths are done in a day, ready the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Are you a vetted contractor?

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

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Landlord and trade work in Llanbradach

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

The process

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a full day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  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. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Have a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Choosing a repair company

Repairing versus replacing in Llanbradach

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why Llanbradach customers choose us

  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • No extra charge for your area

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Respect the curing time we give you

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

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
