DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully 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.
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 usually the cheaper route.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Llanfrothen
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Common call-outs are for a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Llanfrothen as everywhere else we work.

Common questions in Llanfrothen
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Gwynedd. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Gwynedd.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.

- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
