How we handle bath re-enamelling in Gegin
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Common call-outs are for a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Gegin as everywhere else we work.

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Respect the curing time we give you
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What affects the price in Gegin
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Gegin. The price reflects:
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Phone photos are fine. Ensure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Common questions in Gegin
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you cover the whole of Wrexham?
All of Wrexham, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Will the new finish last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Gegin
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Gegin
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A coloured bath you want in white

What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gegin as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
