Pentredŵr: your questions answered

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Will there be a smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

Which areas do you work in?

The whole UK, including all of Wrexham. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

How quickly can you book me in?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Can you quote from pictures?

Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Does someone need to be in?

We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.

What information do you need?

A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • What kind of damage it is
  • How much damage there is
  • Doing more than one item at once

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

How to get a fixed price

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Pressed steel

Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.

How the visit works

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take most of the day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Ensure the area is dry

How to get a price

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Repairing versus replacing in Pentredŵr

Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What you get with us

  • Same prices wherever you are
  • Fixed prices from your pictures
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • Most jobs done in one visit

Read our full price list or bath cost comparison.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy:

  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath

Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
