Bath re-enamelling in Plas Bennion without replacing anything

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Common call-outs are for wear marks under the taps and lots of chips and rust spots, across basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.

Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs

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 the part we put right.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Never use suction bath mats

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.

Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.

Landlord and trade work in Plas Bennion

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

How it works

We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Why repair rather than replace?

A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Plas Bennion?

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • A coating lifting around the plughole
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

Choosing a repair company

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Whether we combine several jobs

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

Quotes from your photos

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Plas Bennion: your questions answered

Is there a call-out fee?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, 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 do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Usually one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Do you need to take the bath out?

Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

Does re-enamelling smell?

A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
