Bath re-enamelling in Tairgwaith without replacing anything
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. If you are dealing with lots of chips and rust spots and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can usually put it right.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:

Questions from Tairgwaith
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Will the new finish last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. You can expect it to take the best part of a day.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
- Ensure the area is dry
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Common problems we fix in Tairgwaith
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Stains that will not shift
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Wear marks under the taps
Questions to ask before you book
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How long it needs to cure
- What preparation is included
- Whether a trained technician does the job
What a repair cannot fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A metal bath with a through crack
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, 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.
