Bath re-enamelling in Brynrefail

DIY kit or professional repair?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

Bath re-enamelling in Brynrefail without replacing anything

After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We are often asked to fix chips and rust in more than one place and staining under the taps and around the waste, on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • A bath that is rusted through
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we repair

  • Pressed steel baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Basins & shower trays

FAQs for Brynrefail

Do you cover the whole of Gwynedd?

We cover the entire UK, including Brynrefail and the rest of Gwynedd. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

What happens after I send photos?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.

What information do you need?

Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of

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

How to get a fixed quote

You can generally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Landlord and trade work in Brynrefail

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.

For anyone letting property in or around Brynrefail, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.

Repairing versus replacing in Brynrefail

Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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 pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.

How it works

We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a full day, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
