Bath re-enamelling in Waunarlwydd without replacing anything
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the next day. Typical jobs include lots of chips and rust spots and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, across pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Waunarlwydd: your questions answered
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for the best part of a day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Have chips seen to early
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Why repair rather than replace?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What else we do in Waunarlwydd
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Waunarlwydd. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
