About our bath re-enamelling in Rifle Green
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We are often asked to fix an outdated colour you’d like to change and a roll-top that’s seen better days, on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Store bottles off the bath
- Have chips seen to early
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A bath that’s rusted through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Repair or replace in Rifle Green?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Common questions in Rifle Green
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Do you cover the entire of Torfaen?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Do you work in Rifle Green?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Rifle Green. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
