How we handle bath re-enamelling in Nelson
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. If you’re dealing with several chips and rust patches and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, we can normally put it right, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

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, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
The process
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

FAQs for Nelson
Which areas do you work in?
All of Merthyr Tydfil, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Do you come to Nelson?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Nelson. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Repair dripping taps early
- Have chips seen to early
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
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.
