Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Ashampstead. The price comes down to:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the whole bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Most customers in Ashampstead get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Ashampstead
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Typical jobs include an outdated colour you’d like to change and a coating lifting around the plughole, across acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Store bottles off the bath
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.

Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
