Bath re-enamelling in Gorsedd, done in place

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Typical jobs include lots of chips and rust spots and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.

You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Landlord and trade work in Gorsedd

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

Should you replace it?

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Looking after it afterwards

It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:

  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away

Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes most of the day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

When we’d advise against a repair

Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Gorsedd

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.

Do you need to take the bath out?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Is my repair covered?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do you cover the whole of Flintshire?

All of Flintshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

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.

When to call us in Gorsedd

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

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
