What affects the price in Victoria
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Victoria. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Victoria
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Whether it’s a bath in a colour that no longer suits and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can usually put it right, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths alike.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
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 repair cannot fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Have chips seen to early
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

How the visit works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Getting a price

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Victoria
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Blaenau Gwent.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How long is the bath unusable?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
