Bath re-enamelling in Garneddwen

About our bath re-enamelling in Garneddwen

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We are frequently asked to fix a coating lifting around the plughole and an outdated colour you’d like to change, in cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.

Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

What your bath is made of matters

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Roll-top and period baths

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

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Garneddwen

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, generally first under the taps and around the waste.

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean

What happens on the day

On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.

How to prepare

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Related advice

Keeping it looking good

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Repair dripping taps early

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

When we’d advise against a repair

A repair is not right for every job, including:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Why repair rather than replace?

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Why us?

  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour-matched on site
  • Nothing taken out or refitted
