How we handle bath re-enamelling in Pentre'rgaseg
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. If you’re dealing with a coloured bath you want in white and wear marks under the taps, we can typically put it right, on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What we can’t put right
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Have chips seen to early
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Details of any past repairs
- Any details about the material
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Pentre'rgaseg, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
