Bath re-enamelling in Trevenen Bal without replacing anything
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is usually the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We work on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A photo taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Questions from Trevenen Bal
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Trevenen Bal?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Common problems we fix in Trevenen Bal
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Several chips and rust patches
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
What your quote should include
- What aftercare is recommended
- How your room will be protected
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One visit for most repairs
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

Advice
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Store bottles off the bath
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
