How we handle bath re-enamelling in Duffryn
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. If you are dealing with wear marks under the taps and stains that won’t shift, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What we are called out for in Duffryn
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
The things clients generally mention when they call are:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough

How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Repair dripping taps early
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Holes rusted through the metal
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
If you are in Duffryn and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
