Bath re-enamelling in Pen-y-bont, done in place
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Common call-outs are for a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and wear marks under the taps, in pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

FAQs for Pen-y-bont
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will the new finish last?
Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

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’s the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Get any chip repaired quickly
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Landlord and trade work in Pen-y-bont
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
