Honest limits
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Wye Valley
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Common call-outs are for a peeling or bubbling previous coating and an outdated colour you’d like to change, in Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Repair or replace in Wye Valley?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Wye Valley?
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Wye Valley. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
To get a price, send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
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.
