10 questions to ask before you book

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Dolwyd

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. If you’re dealing with a roll-top that’s seen better days and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can help, on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths alike.

Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

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

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

How the visit works

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Generally one visit, start to finish
  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Straight answers about what a repair can do

Take a look at our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • How many areas need work

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Dolwyd

Will the new finish last?

It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Does re-enamelling smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

How long does re-enamelling take?

Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can pets and children be at home?

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Do you cover Dolwyd?

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Dolwyd and the rest of Conwy. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
