Hên-durnpike: your questions answered
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Gwynedd.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Hên-durnpike
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Typical jobs include a roll-top that’s seen better days and an old resurfacing that’s failing, in acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What a repair cannot fix
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
What we’re called out for in Hên-durnpike
Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A coloured bath you want in white

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow the best part of a day, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Hên-durnpike. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For a price in Hên-durnpike, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
