Bath re-enamelling in Heol-ddu without replacing anything
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It generally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are an outdated colour you’d like to change and chips and rust in more than one place.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through

When to call us in Heol-ddu
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Common reasons people in Heol-ddu contact us are:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Several chips and rust patches
- Stains that will not shift
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
What to look for in a quote
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How the colour is matched
- How soon you can use it again
Why repair rather than replace?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. 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 you book, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Repair dripping taps early
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for the best part of a day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- 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.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
