Trusted bath re-enamelling in Hayscastle

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely 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.

For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

About our bath re-enamelling in Hayscastle

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Common call-outs are for lots of chips and rust spots and thin, worn enamel in places, in Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.

All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Hayscastle

How do I book?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.

Do you cover Hayscastle?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hayscastle. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.

Do you cover the entire of Pembrokeshire?

We cover the entire UK, including Hayscastle and the rest of Pembrokeshire. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

For landlords and businesses

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Keeping it looking good

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

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

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Common problems we fix in Hayscastle

Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.

Typical reasons for a call-out include:

  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Stains that won’t shift
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean

What to look for in a quote

  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How your room will be protected
  • What preparation is included

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Holes rusted through the metal

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

What we work on

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

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Hayscastle

  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Colour-matched on site
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited

Different materials, different repairs

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Acrylic

Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

How it works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Preparing for the visit

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
  • Open a window if you can
