Bath re-enamelling in Rhosgadfan without replacing anything

Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Whether it’s a coating lifting around the plughole and several chips and rust patches, we can typically put it right, on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths alike.

Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step

The work is clean and fairly quiet. Protection goes down first, then the work takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit

Getting a price

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

When we’d advise against a repair

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

For landlords and businesses

Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Rhosgadfan use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

For anyone letting property in or around Rhosgadfan, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

Questions from Rhosgadfan

What happens next?

We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Is there a guarantee?

All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

What happens if you find more damage?

We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Does re-enamelling smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Are there extra charges for Rhosgadfan?

There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Keeping it looking good

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Have chips seen to early
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

How we price bath re-enamelling

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

  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Rhosgadfan. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your pictures

Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your LL54 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What we’re called out for in Rhosgadfan

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

These are the problems we are asked about most:

  • Stains that won’t shift
  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Several chips and rust patches

What to look for in a quote

  • What protection goes down before work starts
  • Aftercare advice
  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the price covers travel

How to compare quotes

Repairing versus replacing in Rhosgadfan

Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Why book with us

  • Honest advice, even when it means no job
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
