How we handle bath re-enamelling in Swansea
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Whether it’s a peeling or bubbling previous coating and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.
What we can’t put right
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A bath split right through the body
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Common problems we fix in Swansea
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
Customers normally contact us about:
- Several chips and rust patches
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Why repair rather than replace?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Swansea. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for the best part of a day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit

- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Different materials, different repairs
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.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
