Bath re-enamelling in Fferws Hill without replacing anything
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are thin, worn enamel in places and several chips and rust patches.
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.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Fferws Hill questions
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
How long is the bath unusable?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Fferws Hill included. Travel is included in the price.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Fferws Hill
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Fferws Hill as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole bath
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job without visiting.
Repairing versus replacing in Fferws Hill
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Related advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Never use suction bath mats
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Fferws Hill?
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Customers usually contact us about:
- Wear marks under the taps
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
