About our bath re-enamelling in Tre-pit
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are worn patches where water runs and sits and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Tre-pit
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes the best part of a day for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
Send us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Tre-pit, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What else we do in Tre-pit
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Tre-pit?
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Common reasons people in Tre-pit contact us are:
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Stains that won’t shift
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Thin, worn enamel in places
Comparing quotes
- How your room will be protected
- What prep work is covered
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- If travel is included in the price
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Tre-pit
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Have chips seen to early
- Store bottles off the bath
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
