Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Dyfaty
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. If you are dealing with a coating lifting around the plughole and an outdated colour you’d like to change, we can normally put it right, on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What else we do in Dyfaty
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

- 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.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the next day.

Related advice
Dyfaty: your questions answered
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Do you cover the entire of Swansea?
Across the UK, and that includes Dyfaty. Prices don’t change with location.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Landlord and trade work in Dyfaty
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Swansea and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
When to call us in Dyfaty
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Wear marks under the taps
- A coloured bath you want in white
What your quote should include
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether a trained technician does the job
