Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Pen-y-ffordd
How long is the bath unusable?
Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Generally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Pen-y-ffordd
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about worn patches where water runs and sits and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A bath split right through the body
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

What else we do in Pen-y-ffordd
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have chips seen to early
- Repair dripping taps early
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
