About our bath re-enamelling in Pen-yr-englyn
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We’re frequently asked to fix a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Most jobs done in one visit
- One price list for the entire UK
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Questions from Pen-yr-englyn
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a full day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Pen-yr-englyn. What changes the price is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
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.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
