Advice
Bath re-enamelling in Bailiff Bridge without replacing anything
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We are frequently asked to fix a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and worn patches where water runs and sits, in acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Should you replace it?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Landlord and trade work in Bailiff Bridge
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Bailiff Bridge use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
