Bath re-enamelling at your home in Briton Ferry
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about several chips and rust patches and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which usually takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
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 entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Everything repaired in place
Read our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Never use suction bath mats
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Questions from Briton Ferry
Will the bath be moved?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you work in Briton Ferry?
We do. We send a technician to Briton Ferry for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For anyone letting property in or around Briton Ferry, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Common problems we fix in Briton Ferry
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
