About our bath re-enamelling in Caerhowel
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are worn patches where water runs and sits and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Caerhowel. The price depends on:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- How many areas need work
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Caerhowel
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Which areas do you work in?
The whole UK, including all of Powys. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface without moving it. Prices start from £350. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for the best part of a day. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store bottles off the bath
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Landlord and trade work in Caerhowel
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Caerhowel use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, typically first under the taps and around the waste.
