Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

When to call us in Pen-yr-heol
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
People usually call us after spotting one of these:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A coloured bath you want in white
Questions to ask before booking
- How soon you can use it again
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How the colour is matched
- What protection goes down before work starts
When a repair is not the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Steel that has corroded right through
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What affects the price in Pen-yr-heol
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:

- One sharp close-up of the damage

Landlord and trade work in Pen-yr-heol
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
