Advice
Bath re-enamelling in Newtown, done in place
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is generally the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Whether it’s staining under the taps and around the waste and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can help, on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Common problems we fix in Newtown
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Most people contact us when they notice something like this:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Lots of chips and rust spots
What your quote should include
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether they match the colour on site
Should you replace it?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
