How we handle bath re-enamelling in Graig Penllyn
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. If you are dealing with staining under the taps and around the waste and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can usually put it right, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
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.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
The process
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 work takes most of the day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Why repair rather than replace?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
What you get with us

Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.

Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
