About our bath re-enamelling in Beddgelert

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Common call-outs are for a coloured bath you want in white and staining under the taps and around the waste, across Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Common problems we fix in Beddgelert

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Look out for any of the following:

  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • Thin, worn enamel in places

What to look for in a quote

Our hiring checklist

Beddgelert: your questions answered

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can you price it without visiting?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.

How long is the bath unusable?

Most baths are done in a day, ready the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.

What happens next?

You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Will the bath be moved?

Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a full day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Ask for a price

You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Related advice

Should you replace it?

A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • A fixed quote before booking
  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • One visit for most repairs

How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Beddgelert

For anyone letting property in or around Beddgelert, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Holes rusted through the metal

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

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

Getting a price from photos

Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
