Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Aberaman North

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

Look out for these signs:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

Questions to ask before you book

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • What prep work is covered

How to compare quotes

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • Store bottles off the bath

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Holes rusted through the metal

What information do you need?

Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

How long is the bath unusable?

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

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

What we do, step by step

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a full day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  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.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
