Bath re-enamelling at your home in Rachub
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are an outdated colour you’d like to change and lots of chips and rust spots.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What else we do in Rachub
Rachub questions
Do you cover the entire of Gwynedd?
We cover the whole UK, including Rachub and the rest of Gwynedd. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you work in Rachub?
We do. We send a technician to Rachub for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Should you replace it?
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 also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Why us?
- One price list for the entire UK
- One visit for most repairs
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- We leave the room as we found it
Read our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Have chips seen to early
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Holes rusted through the metal
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Rachub
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Several chips and rust patches
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What happens if they find more damage
- When it can be used again
What affects the price in Rachub
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Rachub. The price reflects:
- The material
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
We price from pictures so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Getting a price
