When we’d advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Steel that has corroded right through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Treowen. The price comes down to:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The type of damage
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Treowen. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
When to call us in Treowen
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Several chips and rust patches

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Common questions in Treowen
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
What else we do in Treowen
Landlord and trade work in Treowen
If you manage property in Treowen, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take a full day, tidy-up included.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
