Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Bath re-enamelling in Cilybebyll, done in place

If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Whether it’s a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and wear marks under the taps, we can typically put it right.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Choosing a repair company

What happens on the day

Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a full day for most jobs. We leave the room clean.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  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. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Point us to the nearest place to park

For landlords and businesses

We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Questions from Cilybebyll

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Do you cover Cilybebyll?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Cilybebyll. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you repair several things at once?

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

Do the materials smell?

It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

Do you hold any accreditations?

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

Can pets and children be at home?

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.

Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?

Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Cilybebyll?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item with your SA8 postcode.

When a repair is not the answer

In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material

Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Quotes from your photos

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • Something in shot to show the size

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Store bottles off the bath

Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
