About our bath re-enamelling in Penrhiwtyn
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Common call-outs are for a coloured bath you want in white and several chips and rust patches, in pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Why repair rather than replace?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day, with the bath back in use the next day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.

When to call us in Penrhiwtyn
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, normally first under the taps and around the waste.
Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
Before you book anyone
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What aftercare is recommended
- What preparation is included
- What happens if they find more damage
What we do, step by step
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 work takes the best part of a day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have a window or extractor fan available

When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays

Penrhiwtyn: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your SA11 postcode.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
