Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Black Rock
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the day after. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We are often asked to fix worn patches where water runs and sits and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, across cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Monmouthshire.

Advice
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
