We travel to Cwmbychan for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a full day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Advice
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Cwmbychan
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Typical jobs include an old resurfacing that’s failing and an outdated colour you’d like to change, in basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Cwmbychan
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you cover the whole of Neath Port Talbot?
Across the UK, and that includes Cwmbychan. Prices don’t change with location.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Cwmbychan?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Should you replace it?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- Everything repaired in place
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- We leave the room as we found it
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
See our prices page and bath cost comparison.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
