Bath re-enamelling in Tir-y-berth without replacing anything

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. If you’re dealing with wear marks under the taps and a coloured bath you want in white, we can help, whatever the material.

How it 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. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. Primer and finish coats are applied.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Point us to the nearest place to park
  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off

We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Getting a price from photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • A photo taken from further back
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

To get a price, send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

What a repair cannot fix

Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:

  • Holes rusted through the metal
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on

  • Cast iron baths
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Acrylic baths

Work for landlords and builders

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Looking after it afterwards

Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Repair dripping taps early

Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.

Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Repairing versus replacing in Tir-y-berth

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. Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

What your bath is made of matters

Cast iron

Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

Tir-y-berth questions

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

How long is the bath unusable?

Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Do I need to be at home?

We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Usually, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.

Can I fix it myself?

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
