Bath re-enamelling in Pen-dre without replacing anything
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the day after. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We regularly repair acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are several chips and rust patches and worn patches where water runs and sits.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Ceredigion.

When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath that is rusted through
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Pen-dre
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Several chips and rust patches
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
Questions to ask before you book
- How to care for the finish
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- 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 until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Questions from Pen-dre
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SY23 postcode.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day, with the bath back in use the following day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Colour-matched on site

What affects the price in Pen-dre
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed price
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, with your SY23 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
