Book bath re-enamelling in Glanduar

Should you replace it?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Bath re-enamelling in Glanduar without replacing anything

When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about thin, worn enamel in places and an outdated colour you’d like to change.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

When we would advise against a repair

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Glanduar as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Questions from Glanduar

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.

How long is the bath unusable?

Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we are working.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.

Is there a smell?

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

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • How many areas need work
  • What the surface is made of
  • The colour and finish to match

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.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus

If you are in Glanduar and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

The process

On the day, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. 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. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice

When to call us in Glanduar

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

Customers normally contact us about:

  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Before you book anyone

  • How your room will be protected
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • How soon you can use it again
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Our hiring checklist

What your bath is made of matters

Acrylic

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

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

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 fails, we can still put it right.
