Bath re-enamelling at your home in Pen-Llyn
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the day after. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Common call-outs are for a roll-top that’s seen better days and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair

The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Ceredigion and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Have chips seen to early
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What we’re called out for in Pen-Llyn
Often the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A coloured bath you want in white
What to look for in a quote
- How the room is protected while they work
- How the colour is matched
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
