Bath re-enamelling for Ty'n-y-groes homes

What we are called out for in Ty'n-y-groes

Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • A roll-top that is seen better days
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A coloured bath you want in white

Bath re-enamelling in Ty'n-y-groes, done in place

A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We’re frequently asked to fix an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, across pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Why repair rather than replace?

There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing usually wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Why book with us

  • No extra charge for your area
  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Honest advice, even when it means no job

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

How the visit works

Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. Allow a full day.

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

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Let us know if it has been repaired before

Advice

Questions from Ty'n-y-groes

Do the materials smell?

There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.

What happens next?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

How long does re-enamelling last?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Is there a smell?

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

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.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Ty'n-y-groes. What changes the price is:

  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • What the surface is made of
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Send photos for a quote

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:

  • A wider photo showing the entire bath
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Details of any past repairs
  • Natural light rather than flash

A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

When a repair is not the answer

A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

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

What we work on

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

Repairs by material

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
