Bath re-enamelling at your home in Cwmcelyn
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are several chips and rust patches and a coating lifting around the plughole.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What affects the price in Cwmcelyn
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Common problems we fix in Cwmcelyn
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, typically first under the taps and around the waste.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
Comparing quotes
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether the price covers travel
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Cwmcelyn
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your NP13 postcode.
Do you cover the whole of Blaenau Gwent?
We cover the entire UK, including Cwmcelyn and the rest of Blaenau Gwent. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Have chips seen to early
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
