Pentir questions

Can pets and children be at home?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Is there a call-out fee?

Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.

What happens if you find more damage?

If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Pentir?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.

Do you come to Pentir?

We do. We send a technician to Pentir for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

How soon can you come?

Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

Is repairing better than replacing?

In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.

  • Staining under the taps and around the waste
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

What your quote should include

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Who turns up on the day
  • Whether the price covers travel
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

Keeping it looking good

A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Repair dripping taps early

Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.

  • Acrylic baths

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and the room is left clean and tidy.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Getting a price
