About our bath re-enamelling in Bank End
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we don’t cut corners on it. Common call-outs are for several chips and rust patches and a coloured bath you want in white, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Bank End
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Holes rusted through the metal
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths

What else we do in Bank End
Bank End: your questions answered
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Common problems we fix in Bank End
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A coloured bath you want in white
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Wear marks under the taps
Questions to ask before you book
- How long it needs to cure
- What happens if they find more damage
- How the colour is matched
- Whether a trained technician does the job
How it works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a full day. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
For a price in Bank End, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
