Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Goitre Coed, Merthyr Tydfil
Local bath re-enamelling for Goitre Coed: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Bath re-enamelling in Goitre Coed, done in place
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a roll-top that’s seen better days and a coating lifting around the plughole.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Questions from Goitre Coed
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Merthyr Tydfil. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.

Why repair rather than replace?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Goitre Coed
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For anyone letting property in or around Goitre Coed, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A bath that’s rusted through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
