- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Staining under the taps and around the waste

About our bath re-enamelling in Maindy
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. Whether it’s a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, we can usually put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will sort it.

Advice
Maindy questions
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
Do you work in Maindy?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Maindy for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Never use suction bath mats
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

Repair or replace in Maindy?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

What affects the price in Maindy
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Unusual colours or finishes
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A photo taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
