What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Brynglas
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We regularly repair acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a coloured bath you want in white.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Brynglas?
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Several chips and rust patches
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A roll-top that is seen better days

How it works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Should you replace it?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Respect the curing time we give you
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
