Bath re-enamelling in Gwibnant, done in place

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Common call-outs are for a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and chips and rust in more than one place, in pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.

You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How it works

Here’s how a visit typically 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 check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.

We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Should you replace it?

Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, with the bath ready the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colour-matched on site
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Usually one visit, start to finish

See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What we can’t put right

Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we repair

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

Common questions in Gwibnant

Is there a guarantee?

Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do you charge for travel?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Flintshire.

What do you need from me?

Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.

What happens next?

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.

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

In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.

Do you work in Gwibnant?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Gwibnant. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Landlord and trade work in Gwibnant

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How to look after the repair

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • Respect the curing time we give you

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:

  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.

How to get a fixed quote

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One picture of the whole bath
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
