Bath re-enamelling in Llandysul, done in place

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We’re frequently asked to fix lots of chips and rust spots and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.

We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repair or replace: which is better?

A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Llandysul. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Why book with us

  • Every repair guaranteed for a year
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Free fixed quotes from pictures
  • Same prices wherever you are

Keeping it looking good

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Llandysul

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:

  • How many areas need work
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The type of damage

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Send photos for a quote

Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:

  • Something in shot to show the size
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • Details of any past repairs
  • The material, if you know it

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Questions from Llandysul

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

How do I book?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Can you quote from pictures?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

Can tenants book a repair?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

When can you do it?

We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

What we do, step by step

We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes the best part of a day. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  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 a window or extractor fan available
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Common problems we fix in Llandysul

Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.

Look out for these signs:

  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

Questions to ask before you book

  • When it can be used again
  • What prep work is covered
  • Who will actually do the work
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT

Our hiring checklist

What we cannot put right

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • Holes rusted through the metal

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

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

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
