Bath re-enamelling in Aberdulais, done in place
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are lots of chips and rust spots and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What else we do in Aberdulais
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
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 what we repair.
When to call us in Aberdulais
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Stains that will not shift
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What preparation is included
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What protection goes down before work starts
How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take most of the day.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep a parking space free if you can

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Should you replace it?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Questions from Aberdulais
How long does re-enamelling take?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Generally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Do you come to Aberdulais?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Aberdulais and the rest of Neath Port Talbot. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
