- Resurfacing from £350
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Repair dripping taps early
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
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.
About our bath re-enamelling in Gelli-groes
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is usually the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are a coating lifting around the plughole and staining under the taps and around the waste.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Gelli-groes
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Will the new finish last?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Caerphilly.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes most of the day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Gelli-groes
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Gelli-groes as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
