Bath re-enamelling for Rhondda homes

Landlords, agents and businesses in Rhondda

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Rhondda

We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It normally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Common questions in Rhondda

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

Is there any odour?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

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

Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Do I have to be there?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

Do you need to take the bath out?

Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

What happens on the day

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a full day, tidy-up included.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Advice

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:

  • How much damage there is
  • Access to the area
  • The material and finish
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Any details about the material
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Rhondda?

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

You may need us if you’ve spotted:

  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

How to compare quotes

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Honest limits

A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

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

Materials we repair

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

Why repair rather than replace?

For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why Rhondda clients choose us

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • One-year guarantee on every repair
