Bath re-enamelling in Newport without replacing anything
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Whether it’s a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, we can help.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
What happens on the day
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job usually takes a full day. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage
How to get a price

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Work for landlords and builders
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 things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface without moving it. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

When a repair is not the answer
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
