Why repair rather than replace?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Llangynin

  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • One visit for most repairs
  • A fixed quote before booking

The process

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear the area around the damage

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

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 is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Getting a price from pictures

Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

Llangynin questions

Do you cover Llangynin?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Llangynin from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

Does re-enamelling smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Llangynin?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What information do you need?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Keeping it looking good

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

When to call us in Llangynin

Frequently the bath has just had decades of use. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.

Common reasons people in Llangynin contact us are:

  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Wear marks under the taps

What your quote should include

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • If travel is included in the price
