Bath re-enamelling at your home in Cwmgiedd

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Our technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are an old resurfacing that’s failing and chips and rust in more than one place.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse off any bath products.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Cwmgiedd

Are you accredited?

Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

Will there be fumes?

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

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

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

Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your SA9 postcode.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Do the materials smell?

Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It clears as the materials cure.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

When a repair is not the answer

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

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
