When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

DIY kit or professional repair?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

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, and the work is guaranteed.

Landlord and trade work in Ogmore-by-Sea

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.

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

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes most of the 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.

Before we arrive

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Related advice

Ogmore-by-Sea questions

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

How long does re-enamelling take?

Normally one day, with the bath ready the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

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

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Ogmore-by-Sea.

What affects the price in Ogmore-by-Sea

Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Send photos for a quote

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

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

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Ogmore-by-Sea

Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

The things clients normally mention when they call include:

  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Stains that won’t shift

What to look for in a quote

  • How the room is protected while they work
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

Choosing a repair company

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

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

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
