DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.

- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Advice
Repairs by material
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
Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Braunstone Frith. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
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.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the whole bath
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most clients in Braunstone Frith get their price from pictures. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Landlord and trade work in Braunstone Frith
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A bath that’s rusted through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths

We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Braunstone Frith?
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Thin, worn enamel in places
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What happens if they find more damage
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
