Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Coedhirwaun as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes most of the day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Common problems we fix in Coedhirwaun
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How to care for the finish
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Coedhirwaun questions
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you work in Coedhirwaun?
We do. We send a technician to Coedhirwaun for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Do you cover the entire of Neath Port Talbot?
We cover the entire UK, including Coedhirwaun and the rest of Neath Port Talbot. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Coedhirwaun?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What we can’t put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- A bath split right through the body
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we work on in Coedhirwaun
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Coedhirwaun. The price reflects:
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire bath
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
