Bath re-enamelling in Cwm, done in place
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a coloured bath you want in white.
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Swansea.

- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.

Advice
FAQs for Cwm
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Cwm.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Will the new finish last?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Swansea. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Cwm?
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.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Stains that will not shift
- Several chips and rust patches
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Thin, worn enamel in places
Questions to ask before you book
- Who turns up on the day
- What aftercare is recommended
- How your room will be protected
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
