FAQs for Benton
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will the bath be moved?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Benton
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We regularly repair acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and people most frequently call us about an outdated colour you’d like to change and staining under the taps and around the waste.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes a full day.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Related advice
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Store bottles off the bath
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
Work for landlords and builders
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.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Benton use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- We leave the room as we found it
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- No need to remove anything
