Bath re-enamelling at your home in Martletwy
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is generally the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Our technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Martletwy as everywhere else we work.

- A bath split right through the body
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A bath that’s rusted through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

What else we do in Martletwy
Repairing versus replacing in Martletwy
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. 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 combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Martletwy

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Martletwy
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Martletwy questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.

Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Martletwy.

When can you do it?

Do you work in Martletwy?

Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
Martletwy and the surrounding area
Martletwy is about 6 miles south-east of Haverfordwest, in Pembrokeshire. We agree a date that works for you, and you will know when to expect us, so there is no waiting around. Martletwy is one of 223 places in Pembrokeshire we cover.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.
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.
What we do, step by step
You do not need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes the best part of a day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
