About our bath re-enamelling in New Tredegar

We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It generally takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. Whether it’s worn patches where water runs and sits and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, we can help, whatever the material.

Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in New Tredegar and across Caerphilly.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

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

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

What a repair can’t fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

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

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

What we’re called out for in New Tredegar

Often the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.

If you can see any of these, send us a picture:

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • A coating lifting around the plughole

Before you book anyone

  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What preparation is included

Choosing a repair company

The process

Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for the best part of a day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

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

How to prepare

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

FAQs for New Tredegar

Do you work in New Tredegar?

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

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Can landlords book you?

We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Does someone need to be in?

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

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

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

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

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Repair dripping taps early

Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
