About our bath re-enamelling in Llanharry
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Common call-outs are for several chips and rust patches and worn patches where water runs and sits, on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Never use suction bath mats
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Repair or replace in Llanharry?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
