What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Criccieth. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Bath re-enamelling in Criccieth without replacing anything
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Common call-outs are for a coloured bath you want in white and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, in Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Common problems we fix in Criccieth
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
Questions to ask before booking
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price covers travel
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Store bottles off the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
- Have chips seen to early
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
