How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
When can you do it?

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Wern-olau
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you’re dealing with brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to most of the day.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Landlords, agents and businesses in Wern-olau
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Wern-olau?
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Several chips and rust patches
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
