How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to the best part of a day.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Getting a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What we are called out for in Felin-hên

Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

People normally call us when they notice one of these:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough

Before booking anyone

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • What prep work is covered
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • If travel is included in the price

10 questions to ask before you book

Aftercare tips

So the finish stays in good condition for years:

  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Repair dripping taps early

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

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.

Can I fix it myself?

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, then guarantee it for a year.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

When we would advise against a repair

Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Steel that has corroded right through

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

Materials we work on in Felin-hên

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

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Felin-hên

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

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

What do you need from me?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Will there be fumes?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
