About our bath re-enamelling in Pencroesoped
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. If you are dealing with a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can help, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths alike.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The material
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- A photo taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
For a price in Pencroesoped, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.

When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A bath that is rusted through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

FAQs for Pencroesoped
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Do you cover Pencroesoped?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Pencroesoped from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Repair dripping taps early
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
