Bath re-enamelling in Cefn without replacing anything
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We regularly repair acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are an old resurfacing that’s failing and several chips and rust patches.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What we do, step by step
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, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Let us know about parking or access

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cefn: your questions answered
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
What happens after I send pictures?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Fixed prices from your photos
- One-year guarantee on every repair

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Cefn

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Repair dripping taps early
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
When to call us in Cefn
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Stains that will not shift
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
