Why repair rather than replace?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

What affects the price in Penrhosgarnedd
Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Penrhosgarnedd. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most customers in Penrhosgarnedd get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
FAQs for Penrhosgarnedd
Will the new finish last?
Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
