When to call us in Cwmsyfïog
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Common reasons people in Cwmsyfïog contact us include:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Several chips and rust patches
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean

Bath re-enamelling in Cwmsyfïog, done in place
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. If you’re dealing with wear marks under the taps and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, we can generally put it right.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Have chips seen to early
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a full day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- 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.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your NP24 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
Questions from Cwmsyfïog
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you cover the entire of Caerphilly?
The whole UK, including all of Caerphilly. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Cwmsyfïog. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit

When we would advise against a repair

Can I fix it myself?
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 will not last.
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 normally cheaper.
