Bath re-enamelling in Trallwn, done in place
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It generally takes one visit, and can be used again the next day. We are frequently asked to fix a roll-top that’s seen better days and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, in Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Store bottles off the bath
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.

Common questions in Trallwn
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
Will the new finish last?
Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
When to call us in Trallwn
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Clients usually contact us about:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Wear marks under the taps
Questions to ask before you book
- What preparation is included
- How changes to the job are handled
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Repair or replace in Trallwn?
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
