The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire bath
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Bath re-enamelling in Penyrheol without replacing anything
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a roll-top that’s seen better days and stains that won’t shift.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have chips seen to early
- Store bottles off the bath
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- 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.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Advice
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
When to call us in Penyrheol
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Staining under the taps and around the waste

Common questions in Penyrheol
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths, ready the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Repair or replace: which is better?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
