Bath re-enamelling at your home in Ciliau Aeron
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Whether it’s a coating lifting around the plughole and wear marks under the taps, we can generally put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Ciliau Aeron as everywhere else we work.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Have chips seen to early
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Ciliau Aeron. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Ciliau Aeron. The price comes down to:
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas

The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
There is 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 come back to you with a fixed figure.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What we cannot put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Holes rusted through the metal
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
