How we handle bath re-enamelling in Prees Higher Heath
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and common reasons people contact us are staining under the taps and around the waste and chips and rust in more than one place.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Never use suction bath mats
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to the best part of a day, tidy-up included.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Repair or replace: which is better?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Prees Higher Heath questions
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Prees Higher Heath?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
