Bath re-enamelling at your home in Pontlottyn
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. Common call-outs are for an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, across cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

We begin by going over the job with you. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes a full day.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Before we arrive

Advice
Places near Pontlottyn
Also in Pontlottyn
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
When to call us in Pontlottyn
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
People typically call us when they notice something like this:
- Wear marks under the taps
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
Questions to ask before booking
- How long it needs to cure
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What preparation is included
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What we cannot put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
Repairs by material
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pontlottyn questions
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.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Why repair rather than replace?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day, with the bath back in use the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- Work done at your home or business
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
