Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Graigfelen, Swansea
Bath re-enamelling across Graigfelen and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
Bath re-enamelling in Graigfelen, done in place
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We regularly repair acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are staining under the taps and around the waste and several chips and rust patches.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Repair dripping taps early
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Graigfelen
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Should you replace it?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
