Questions from Newtown
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
How long does re-enamelling last?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Generally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
About our bath re-enamelling in Newtown
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. If you’re dealing with a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can normally put it right, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Newtown

How it works
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take most of the day.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- 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.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Why repair rather than replace?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

What affects the price in Newtown
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Newtown?
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Stains that won’t shift
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
What your quote should include
- How soon you can use it again
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
