Drefach questions
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Do you come to Drefach?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Drefach for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Bath re-enamelling in Drefach without replacing anything
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It generally takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. Whether it’s an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and stains that won’t shift, we can help.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

What affects the price in Drefach
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
When to call us in Drefach
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Wear marks under the taps
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
Questions to ask before you book
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- When it can be used again
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We don’t add 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.
Why us?
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Work done at your home or business
- We leave the room as we found it
- One visit for most repairs

Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A bath split right through the body
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes most of the day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
