What affects the price in Abbey Village
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away whether it can be repaired.
How it works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take a full day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the next day.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Common questions in Abbey Village
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we’re working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
How long is the bath unusable?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Lancashire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Abbey Village, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Repairs by material
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.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
When to call us in Abbey Village
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, normally first under the taps and around the waste.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- An old resurfacing that is failing
