Llanbrynmair questions

Do I need to be at home?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Does re-enamelling smell?

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

What if the damage is worse than the photos show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.

Will the new finish last?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Repairing versus replacing in Llanbrynmair

Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

The process

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a full day.

  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. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Open a window if you can

Repairs by material

Pressed steel

Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

When we would advise against a repair

We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:

  • A bath that is rusted through
  • A bath split right through the body
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Materials we work on in Llanbrynmair

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

Common problems we fix in Llanbrynmair

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.

Keep an eye out for any of the following:

  • Several chips and rust patches
  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • Wear marks under the taps

Before booking anyone

  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers
  • How long it needs to cure

How to compare quotes

Keeping it looking good

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

  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Have chips seen to early

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

What affects the price in Llanbrynmair

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:

  • The colour and finish to match
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Whether we combine several jobs

A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • The material, if you know it
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Work for landlords and builders

Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
