Bath re-enamelling near Bagillt

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Bagillt

We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you are dealing with a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Flintshire.

Landlord and trade work in Bagillt

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A bath that is rusted through

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Questions from Bagillt

Does the bath have to be removed?

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.

How long does re-enamelling last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Is my repair covered?

Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.

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.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Looking after it afterwards

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Repair dripping taps early

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

What affects the price in Bagillt

Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Bagillt. What changes the price is:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • How many items we do on one visit
  • The type of damage
  • What the surface is made of

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed quote

Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • A photo taken from further back
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job without visiting.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a full day, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the day after.

How to prepare

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
