Bath re-enamelling at your home in Tanygrisiau

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. If you are dealing with chips and rust in more than one place and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, we can help.

Looking after it afterwards

So the finish stays in good condition:

  • Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Avoid suction-cup mats

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

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

What we are called out for in Tanygrisiau

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • Stains that will not shift
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

What affects the price in Tanygrisiau

Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Tanygrisiau. The price comes down to:

  • How much damage there is
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The colour and finish to match
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

How to get a fixed price

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • One picture of the entire bath
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size

You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

What we do, step by step

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Clear the area around the damage

Ask for a price

We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.

Related advice

When a repair isn’t the answer

It helps to know what we can’t do:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

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

Materials we repair

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

Tanygrisiau questions

Will there be fumes?

Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Is my repair covered?

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

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

Can you repair several things at once?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

How long does re-enamelling last?

Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Can you quote from photos?

Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.

For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. 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.

For landlords and businesses

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tanygrisiau as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

Repairing versus replacing in Tanygrisiau

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
