How we handle bath re-enamelling in Twynholm
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Typical jobs include stains that won’t shift and lots of chips and rust spots, on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t 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.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Holes rusted through the metal
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

What affects the price in Twynholm
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Twynholm. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Ensure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Never use suction bath mats
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, 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.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Twynholm
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to a full day, tidy-up included.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
