Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Foel
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We work on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and thin, worn enamel in places.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What we do, step by step
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Landlord and trade work in Foel
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Powys and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Have chips seen to early
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Holes rusted through the metal
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Common questions in Foel
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
