Bath re-enamelling for Llanycefn homes

Bath re-enamelling in Llanycefn without replacing anything

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Typical jobs include a coating lifting around the plughole and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Llanycefn as everywhere else we work.

When a repair is not the answer

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A bath that is rusted through
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

How the visit works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take most of the day, tidy-up included.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Questions from Llanycefn

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Does re-enamelling smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Llanycefn.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.

What happens after I send photos?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Repairs by material

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 is what we repair.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

For landlords and businesses

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.

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.

Can I fix it myself?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Llanycefn?

Often the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is typically perfectly sound.

Common reasons people in Llanycefn contact us include:

  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

Questions to ask before you book

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What preparation is included
  • What happens if they find more damage

Our hiring checklist

What affects the price in Llanycefn

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many items we do on one visit

Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Getting a price from photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The material, if you know it
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your SA66 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
