Bath re-enamelling in Borth-y-Gest without replacing anything
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Typical jobs include wear marks under the taps and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Borth-y-Gest and across Gwynedd.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Borth-y-Gest
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Borth-y-Gest use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Borth-y-Gest
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes the best part of a day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Advice
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Borth-y-Gest?
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
The things clients usually mention when they call are:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
Comparing quotes
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your LL49 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Repair or replace in Borth-y-Gest?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing usually wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
