How we handle bath re-enamelling in Llangattock

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and people most often call us about an old resurfacing that’s failing and lots of chips and rust spots.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

How to compare quotes

What happens on the day

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’re happy with the plan. It normally takes most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  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. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

  • How much damage there is
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Quotes from your pictures

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • One picture of 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 will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Aftercare tips

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface

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

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

For landlords and businesses

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Llangattock as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Llangattock: your questions answered

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is my repair covered?

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.

Do you cover Llangattock?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Llangattock. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day, with the bath back in use the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. 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 photos.

When a repair is not the answer

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

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

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
