Need bath re-enamelling in Cwm-felin-fach?

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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 photos.

About our bath re-enamelling in Cwm-felin-fach

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are stains that won’t shift and thin, worn enamel in places.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What we are called out for in Cwm-felin-fach

By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

Look out for any of the following:

  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • If travel is included in the price
  • Who will actually do the work
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:

  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The colour and finish to match
  • The type of damage
  • How many items we do on one visit

The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

How to get a fixed price

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:

  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Most customers in Cwm-felin-fach get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

What happens on the day

We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes most of the day in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

How to prepare

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Open a window if you can
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

You do not 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.

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Will there be a smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

Can you repair several things at once?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas

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

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
