About our bath re-enamelling in Llanbadarn Fawr
We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It generally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are a bath in a colour that no longer suits and staining under the taps and around the waste.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Llanbadarn Fawr
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, generally first under the taps and around the waste.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Thin, worn enamel in places

How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- 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 a parking space free if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Advice
How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse off any bath products.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Landlord and trade work in Llanbadarn Fawr
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How much damage there is
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Llanbadarn Fawr: your questions answered
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
