What affects the price in Llantwit Major

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

  • Access to the area
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

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

  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Where you are, by postcode

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Llantwit Major: your questions answered

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.

How do I book?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you cover Llantwit Major?

Yes, we do. We send a technician to Llantwit Major for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Do you cover the entire of the Vale of Glamorgan?

We work UK-wide, and that includes Llantwit Major. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Will the price change on the day?

Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

How to care for the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse off any bath products.

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Why us?

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

What a repair cannot fix

A repair isn’t right for every job, including:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

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

Surfaces we repair

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

What happens on the day

We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the work takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have a window or extractor fan available
