Landlords, agents and businesses in Brecon
For anyone letting property in or around Brecon, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
About our bath re-enamelling in Brecon
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- 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.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Brecon. The price reflects:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole bath

When to call us in Brecon

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
