What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on

- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Aberarth
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We are frequently asked to fix enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an outdated colour you’d like to change, across Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
Every repair is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Ceredigion.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a full day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Common questions in Aberarth
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Will the new finish last?
Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Do you cover Aberarth?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Aberarth for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Landlord and trade work in Aberarth
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
