Should you replace it?

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

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

Pentreclwydau questions

Can landlords book you?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Neath Port Talbot.

What happens if you find more damage?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do you need to take the bath out?

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

Does re-enamelling smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. Inside and out.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.

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

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many areas need work
  • The type of damage

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

When to call us in Pentreclwydau

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

These are the problems we’re asked about most:

  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

10 questions to ask before you book

Work for landlords and builders

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Pentreclwydau use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Looking after it afterwards

Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:

  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

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

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take the best part of a day, tidy-up included.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Ask for a price

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
