About our bath re-enamelling in Llancaiach
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Whether it’s a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Have chips seen to early
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Never use suction bath mats
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Llancaiach?
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Stains that will not shift
- Thin, worn enamel in places

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- What the surface is made of
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Llancaiach. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Llancaiach: your questions answered
Do you cover the entire of Merthyr Tydfil?
The whole UK, including all of Merthyr Tydfil. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
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 most of the day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
