Bath Re-enamelling in Stradey
Fixed-price bath re-enamelling in Stradey and the surrounding area, normally in one visit.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Several chips and rust patches
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Stradey
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are staining under the taps and around the waste and several chips and rust patches.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Landlord and trade work in Stradey
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For anyone letting property in or around Stradey, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll price them together.
Stradey: your questions answered
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Do you cover Stradey?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Stradey for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
What happens after I send photos?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- Natural light rather than flash
- Where you are, by postcode
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you are happy with the plan. It usually takes the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Store bottles off the bath
- Never use suction bath mats
- Respect the curing time we give you
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
