Aftercare tips

To keep it looking its best:

  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Repair dripping taps early

Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Bath re-enamelling in Cellan, done in place

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 regularly repair basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and wear marks under the taps.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common questions in Cellan

Will there be fumes?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Do you work in Cellan?

Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Cellan and the rest of Ceredigion. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there any odour?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.

Do you charge for travel?

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Will the price change on the day?

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Do I need to be at home?

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

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

The process

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

Advice

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.

When we’d advise against a repair

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Prices and what affects them

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

  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • The type of damage

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

You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:

  • Any details about the material
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
