Bath re-enamelling at your home in Tre'r-ddol

Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Tre'r-ddol as everywhere else we work.

How it works

On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, including clearing up.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Open a window if you can
  • Ensure the area is dry

Getting a price

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

Tre'r-ddol questions

Do you cover Tre'r-ddol?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Tre'r-ddol from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

What areas do you cover?

All of Powys, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

What do you need from me?

Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.

Is it safe with children and pets around?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?

Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

How long is the bath unusable?

One day for most baths, ready the next day. We give you timings with the quote.

Are you accredited?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Different materials, different repairs

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A bath that’s rusted through

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Surfaces we repair

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

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Tre'r-ddol?

Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.

The most common problems we are called about are:

  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who will actually do the work
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What happens if they find more damage
  • Aftercare advice

How to compare quotes

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Tre'r-ddol. The price comes down to:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • The material and finish
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • How many areas need work

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Getting a price from pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:

  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Send us a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SY20 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Landlord and trade work in Tre'r-ddol

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Tre'r-ddol as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How to look after the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Get any chip repaired quickly
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.

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.

Can I fix it myself?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
