Bath re-enamelling in Llwyngwril without replacing anything
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are stains that won’t shift and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Llwyngwril: your questions answered
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually 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.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Have chips seen to early
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Repair dripping taps early
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath split right through the body
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays

When to call us in Llwyngwril
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
