Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we are called out for in Alltwen
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
