When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Blackwood
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It typically takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Whether it’s lots of chips and rust spots and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, we can normally put it right, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.

Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Repairing versus replacing in Blackwood
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is normally much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us
- One visit for most repairs
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- One price list for the whole UK
- Rooms protected and left tidy

What affects the price in Blackwood
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your NP12 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Blackwood: your questions answered
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the day after. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Blackwood?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NP12 postcode.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
