Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Caeriw, Pembrokeshire
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing in Caeriw, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A roll-top that is seen better days
What your bath is made of matters
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 is what we repair.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
About our bath re-enamelling in Caeriw
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We’re often asked to fix stains that won’t shift and a roll-top that’s seen better days, on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Never use suction bath mats
- Store bottles off the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Caeriw
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Wear marks under the taps
Questions to ask before booking
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How to look after the finish
- How the room is protected while they work
- What prep work is covered
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.

Repair or replace: which is better?
