Bath Re-enamelling in Ffrith
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing in Ffrith, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Bath re-enamelling in Ffrith without replacing anything
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Typical jobs include a coloured bath you want in white and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, across cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Ffrith as everywhere else we work.

What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes most of the day.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Wrexham and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Common questions in Ffrith
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
Why repair rather than replace?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Hard water speeds up the wear, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
Common reasons people in Ffrith contact us include:

Repairs by material
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.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
