Bath re-enamelling near Ffrwd

Bath re-enamelling in Ffrwd, done in place

Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. If you are dealing with a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can help, on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths alike.

The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Ffrwd?

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

How to compare quotes

What affects the price in Ffrwd

Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Ffrwd. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish

No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Send pictures for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:

  • Natural light rather than flash
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • One sharp close-up of the damage

Most clients in Ffrwd get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Work for landlords and builders

If you manage property in Ffrwd, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.

Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Why repair rather than replace?

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Ffrwd: your questions answered

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

How long does re-enamelling last?

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.

What happens after I send pictures?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is it messy?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Can I add another job to the visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.

The process

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow the best part of a day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Ensure the area is dry
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

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, and the work is guaranteed.

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

What a repair cannot fix

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
