Bath re-enamelling for Pengam homes

What affects the price in Pengam

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Pengam. The price reflects:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How much damage there is
  • Unusual colours or finishes

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

How to get a fixed quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • 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 to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Bath re-enamelling in Pengam without replacing anything

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We work on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about worn patches where water runs and sits and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Common problems we fix in Pengam

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pengam

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pengam use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

Why repair rather than replace?

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. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why Pengam clients choose us

  • One visit for most repairs
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
  • A fixed quote before you book
  • Colour mixed on the day to match

What happens on the day

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the day after.

How to prepare

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Roll-top and period baths

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

What we cannot put right

Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Holes rusted through the metal

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Pengam

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