Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Y Ferwig
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Bath re-enamelling in Y Ferwig, done in place
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we don’t cut corners on it. Common call-outs are for an outdated colour you’d like to change and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, in cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a full day, including clearing up.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Y Ferwig?
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Several chips and rust patches
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
Before booking anyone
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Y Ferwig use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

- Cast iron baths
