When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Holes rusted through the metal
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Talacharn
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Whether it’s chips and rust in more than one place and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can help.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Never use suction bath mats
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Have chips seen to early
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
What affects the price in Talacharn
Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Talacharn. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Should you replace it?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.

We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Talacharn use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
