FAQs for Pontcynon
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Pontcynon and the rest of Rhondda Cynon Taff. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Pontcynon
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and lots of chips and rust spots.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Rhondda Cynon Taff.

How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Never use suction bath mats
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Pontcynon. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take the best part of a day, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price

Advice
What we are called out for in Pontcynon
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Most people contact us after spotting one of these:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Wear marks under the taps
Questions to ask before booking
- Who turns up on the day
- Aftercare advice
- If travel is included in the price
- How long it needs to cure
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
