Questions from Blaencwm
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Are there extra charges for Blaencwm?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Blaencwm
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a roll-top that’s seen better days and worn patches where water runs and sits.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Common problems we fix in Blaencwm
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A coloured bath you want in white
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- An old resurfacing that’s failing

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Have chips seen to early
- Repair dripping taps early
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse off any bath products.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes most of the day in most cases. We leave the room clean.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Open a window if you can
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What else we do in Blaencwm
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Holes rusted through the metal
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CF42 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
