Bath re-enamelling for Wentlooge homes

About our bath re-enamelling in Wentlooge

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Whether it’s an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.

Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Wentlooge and across Newport.

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Wentlooge. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How to get a fixed price

Phone pictures are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:

  • Any details about the material
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A photo taken from further back

Most clients in Wentlooge get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a full day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Advice

Wentlooge: your questions answered

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

What do you need from me?

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

What happens after I send pictures?

We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Do you do work for letting agents?

We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

Can you quote from pictures?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:

  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • A bath split right through the body

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

Materials we work on in Wentlooge

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

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Store bottles off the bath

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Repair or replace in Wentlooge?

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
