Wenallt questions

Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Wenallt included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?

What do you need from me?

Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Wenallt
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. If you’re dealing with a coating lifting around the plughole and a coloured bath you want in white, we can help, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths alike.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Cardiff.

Repairing versus replacing in Wenallt

Re-enamelling renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Advice
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
When to call us in Wenallt
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.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
What to look for in a quote
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What aftercare is recommended
- How the colour is matched
- Who turns up on the day
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
