Pentwyn questions
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Pentwyn
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Wear marks under the taps
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Lots of chips and rust spots

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes the best part of a day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Repairing versus replacing in Pentwyn
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- A fixed quote before booking
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
