Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing usually wins. Prices start from £350. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Bath re-enamelling in Cwmavon, done in place
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are wear marks under the taps and chips and rust in more than one place.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What we are called out for in Cwmavon

- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Chips and rust in more than one place

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.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Cwmavon
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cwmavon as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a full day, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Cwmavon. What changes the price is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
