Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
FAQs for Barking
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Barking.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
How long is the bath unusable?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you come to Barking?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Barking. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Honest limits
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Repair or replace in Barking?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What affects the price in Barking
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
If you are in Barking and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- 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.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Advice
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Barking?
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Chips and rust in more than one place
What to look for in a quote
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What aftercare is recommended
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether a trained technician does the job
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Have chips seen to early
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
