How we handle bath re-enamelling in Nantgarw
We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It typically takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Common call-outs are for a bath in a colour that no longer suits and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, across Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Nantgarw and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Nantgarw. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
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.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 typically cheaper.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

When to call us in Nantgarw
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Several chips and rust patches
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- An outdated colour you’d like to change

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Should you replace it?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
If you manage property in Nantgarw, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll price them together.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Nantgarw
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a full day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the next day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
