How we handle bath re-enamelling in Treworlas

Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We’re frequently asked to fix wear marks under the taps and an old resurfacing that’s failing, across acrylic baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.

We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Treworlas

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What happens on the day

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take most of the day, including clearing up.

  1. The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
  2. We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Keep suction mats out of the bath
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it

Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Treworlas

Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.

Get in touch if you’ve noticed:

  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

How to compare quotes

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Treworlas

Is there any odour?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.

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

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

How soon can you come?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Treworlas?

Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Is it messy?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.

Will the price change on the day?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.

What we cannot put right

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
  • A bath split right through the body
  • A bath that is rusted through

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

Materials we repair

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

Repairs by material

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

What affects the price in Treworlas

Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:

  • Doing more than one item at once
  • Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • The material and finish

Every job is a little different, 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.

Send pictures for a quote

You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • Where you are, by postcode
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back
  • Something in shot to show the size

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
