About our bath re-enamelling in Backwell Common
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 an old resurfacing that’s failing and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Landlord and trade work in Backwell Common
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Common questions in Backwell Common
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, usually with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Normally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
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.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for the best part of a day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- 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 until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Get a quote
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Common problems we fix in Backwell Common
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Look out for these signs:
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Wear marks under the taps
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
What to look for in a quote
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What happens if they find more damage
- If travel is included in the price
- How long it needs to cure
Materials and what they mean for the repair
