When to call us in Newtown
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
People usually call us after spotting something like this:
- Wear marks under the taps
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How your room will be protected
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Newtown
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we don’t cut corners on it. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about stains that won’t shift and a coloured bath you want in white.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Store bottles off the bath
- Respect the curing time we give you
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Questions from Newtown
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you come to Newtown?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Newtown and the rest of Caerphilly. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Newtown
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Caerphilly and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What we do, step by step
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take a full day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
