Bath Re-enamelling for Aberdovey homes

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Aberdovey
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We regularly repair acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are wear marks under the taps and chips and rust in more than one place.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Aberdovey. What changes the price is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A photo taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
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.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. Once we are there, the work takes a full day. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
FAQs for Aberdovey
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you work in Aberdovey?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Aberdovey from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
How long does re-enamelling 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.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
