About our bath re-enamelling in Cefn Hengoed
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about a coating lifting around the plughole and staining under the taps and around the waste.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Cefn Hengoed and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Swansea and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
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 is what we repair.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Cefn Hengoed. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To make it quick:
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole bath
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Repair or replace: which is better?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why us?
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- No extra charge for your area
- Work done at your home or business
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- 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
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Questions from Cefn Hengoed
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Are there extra charges for Cefn Hengoed?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, so Cefn Hengoed is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
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.
