Need bath re-enamelling in Pont Morlais?

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Bath re-enamelling in Pont Morlais without replacing anything

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We are frequently asked to fix several chips and rust patches and stains that won’t shift, in basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What a repair cannot fix

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

Pont Morlais questions

Will the new finish last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What areas do you cover?

The whole UK, including all of Merthyr Tydfil. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Can tenants book a repair?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.

Can you price it without visiting?

Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:

  • The type of damage
  • The material
  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from photos

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

When to call us in Pont Morlais

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.

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

  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

Questions to ask before you book

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Who will actually do the work
  • What protection goes down before work starts

How to compare quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Landlord and trade work in Pont Morlais

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Ask for a price
