Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Berkley
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Whether it’s an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can help, whatever the material.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Keep a parking space free if you can

What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Berkley?
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Common reasons people in Berkley contact us include:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Wear marks under the taps
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Lots of chips and rust spots

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your photos
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Never use suction bath mats
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
