What else we do in Tan-y-foel
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Tan-y-foel. The price reflects:
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Tan-y-foel. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage

There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
