Bath re-enamelling in Ysbyty Ifan

Repairing versus replacing in Ysbyty Ifan

Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Ysbyty Ifan

We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you’re dealing with an old resurfacing that’s failing and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can help.

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

The process

We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

How to prepare

  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Let us know about parking or access
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to get a price

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.

Can I fix it myself?

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.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

When to call us in Ysbyty Ifan

Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, typically first under the taps and around the waste.

The things customers normally mention when they call include:

  • Stains that won’t shift
  • Chips and rust in more than one place
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits

Before booking anyone

  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How to care for the finish

Choosing a repair company

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Ysbyty Ifan

Is my repair covered?

All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

How long does re-enamelling take?

Typically one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
