Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Bath re-enamelling in Tongwynlais without replacing anything
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. Typical jobs include a coloured bath you want in white and a coating lifting around the plughole, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Tongwynlais and across Cardiff.

Common problems we fix in Tongwynlais
Often the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Stains that will not shift
Questions to ask before you book
- Who will actually do the work
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How your room will be protected
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
What happens on the day
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 a full day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.

What else we do in Tongwynlais
Should you replace it?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Everything repaired in place
- One visit for most repairs
- Fixed prices from your photos

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Tongwynlais. What changes the price is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material and finish
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
