About our bath re-enamelling in Graig-y-Rhacca

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Whether it’s a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, we can normally put it right, on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

How the visit works

When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job generally takes a full day. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.

  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 day after.

Before we arrive

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Ask for a price

The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Aftercare tips

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Repairing versus replacing in Graig-y-Rhacca

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Prices start 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 play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Why us?

  • Everything repaired in place
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Work done at your home or business

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. 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 Graig-y-Rhacca as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common problems we fix in Graig-y-Rhacca

Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • A roll-top that’s seen better days
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • A coloured bath you want in white

Questions to ask before booking

  • How the colour is matched
  • Who turns up on the day
  • How your room will be protected
  • If travel is included in the price

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 a new finish makes them look new again.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
