Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Trevaughan
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Trevaughan
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Carmarthenshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
When we would advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Holes rusted through the metal
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Trevaughan
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Trevaughan

Common problems we fix in Trevaughan
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
People usually call us after spotting something like this:
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- A coloured bath you want in white
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Comparing quotes
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- If travel is included in the price
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Never use suction bath mats
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Store bottles off the bath
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Trevaughan. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- 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, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
