Bath re-enamelling at your home in Cenarth
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. If you are dealing with an outdated colour you’d like to change and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Questions from Cenarth
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
When we would advise against a repair
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
What we’re called out for in Cenarth
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Wear marks under the taps

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
