Bath Re-enamelling for Rhyn homes
We travel to Rhyn for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Everything is done in place, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A coloured bath you want in white
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Rhyn
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. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are a bath in a colour that no longer suits and several chips and rust patches.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the whole bath
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
Should you replace it?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why Rhyn customers choose us
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a full day, tidy-up included.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your SY11 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Store bottles off the bath
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Have chips seen to early
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Common problems we fix in Rhyn
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Look out for any of the following:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Lots of chips and rust spots
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Whether they match the colour on site
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Common questions in Rhyn
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
