How we handle bath re-enamelling in Pibwrlwyd
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, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are an old resurfacing that’s failing and wear marks under the taps.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Carmarthenshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What affects the price in Pibwrlwyd
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
When to call us in Pibwrlwyd
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, normally first under the taps and around the waste.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Fix dripping taps quickly
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Questions from Pibwrlwyd
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you work in Pibwrlwyd?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Pibwrlwyd. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
