Aftercare tips

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

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Bwlch-y-cibau

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Typical jobs include a coloured bath you want in white and a roll-top that’s seen better days, in acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.

You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

FAQs for Bwlch-y-cibau

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.

Is there any odour?

There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.

Will the price change on the day?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can pets and children be at home?

Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

Are there extra charges for Bwlch-y-cibau?

There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

Do you cover the entire of Powys?

Everywhere in the UK, Bwlch-y-cibau included. There is no extra charge for travel.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bwlch-y-cibau

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

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

Can I fix it myself?

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

What we do, step by step

You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are 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. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

How to get a price

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

Prices and what affects them

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The type of damage
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • The material, if you know it
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SY22 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Repair or replace in Bwlch-y-cibau?

A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, with the bath back in use the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. 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’ll get a fixed figure.
