About our bath re-enamelling in Bettws
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are wear marks under the taps and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Bettws and across Bridgend.

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Repair dripping taps early
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a full day. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Clear the area around the damage

Repairing versus replacing in Bettws
Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, with the bath ready the following day. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Bettws questions
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- The material
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bettws. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
