Need bath re-enamelling in Pont-iets?

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Roll-top and period baths

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

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Whether it’s worn patches where water runs and sits and several chips and rust patches, we can typically put it right.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Questions from Pont-iets

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Will the new finish last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • What the surface is made of
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your photos

Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One picture of the entire bath

There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • A roll-top that is seen better days

Choosing a repair company

Landlord and trade work in Pont-iets

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

What we can’t put right

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on

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

How it works

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take a full day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  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. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

How to get a price

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. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Have chips seen to early

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Why repair rather than replace?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Pont-iets. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
