How we handle bath re-enamelling in Pontllyfni

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are staining under the taps and around the waste and worn patches where water runs and sits.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Pontllyfni and across Gwynedd.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
Primer and finish coats are applied.
The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Before we arrive

Let us know if it has been repaired before
Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

What a repair can’t fix

We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

A metal bath with a through crack
A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Surfaces we repair

Victorian roll-tops
Acrylic baths
Basins & shower trays
Pressed steel baths
Cast iron baths

Landlords, agents and businesses in Pontllyfni

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Keeping it looking good

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

Fix dripping taps quickly
Store bottles off the bath
Avoid suction-cup mats
Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:

How many areas need work
How easy the damage is to reach
The type of damage
What the surface is made of

A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine. Just ensure we can see:

A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Any earlier repairs or coatings
Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
