About our bath re-enamelling in Newbridge
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s wear marks under the taps and chips and rust in more than one place, we can help, on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

When to call us in Newbridge
Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
Before you book anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What preparation is included
- What happens if they find more damage
- When it can be used again
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take most of the day.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Newbridge. What changes the price is:
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from photos 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 you will get a fixed figure back.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
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 normally the cheaper route.
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Newbridge
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
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 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.
