Honest limits

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
  • Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

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

Bath re-enamelling in Wenallt, done in place

We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and worn patches where water runs and sits.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Looking after it afterwards

How the surface is treated afterwards matters:

  • Respect the curing time we give you
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away

Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Wenallt. The price depends on:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • Unusual colours or finishes

Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.

Getting a price from pictures

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

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Something in shot to show the size
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit

Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Wenallt questions

When can you do it?

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.

How long does re-enamelling take?

Most baths are done in a day, ready the day after. We give you timings with the quote.

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.

Do you do work for letting agents?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.

Does re-enamelling smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

Do you work in Wenallt?

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Wenallt and the rest of Gwynedd. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

Are there extra charges for Wenallt?

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.

Work for landlords and builders

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wenallt as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.

The process

It’s a tidy, low-fuss 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. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Preparing for the visit

  • Open a window if you can
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Getting a price

For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Advice

DIY kit or professional repair?

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

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.

Common problems we fix in Wenallt

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

People typically call us when they notice something like this:

  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
  • A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

Comparing quotes

  • How the colour is matched
  • Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
  • A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
  • Who will actually do the work
