How we handle bath re-enamelling in Wantisden
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We’re frequently asked to fix a peeling or bubbling previous coating and wear marks under the taps, across cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The material
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Wantisden
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, usually first under the taps and around the waste.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Several chips and rust patches
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
How it works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a full day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
If you manage property in Wantisden, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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 photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
