Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Pen-y-dre, Swansea
We travel to Pen-y-dre for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Several chips and rust patches
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
About our bath re-enamelling in Pen-y-dre
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Our repair technicians work on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about a coating lifting around the plughole and an outdated colour you’d like to change.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Repairing versus replacing in Pen-y-dre
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day, with the bath back in use the next day. Prices start from £350. 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. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before booking
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Pen-y-dre: your questions answered
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Swansea.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take most of the day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
