  • Wear marks under the taps

Bath re-enamelling in Braythorn, done in place

We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are a coloured bath you want in white and stains that won’t shift.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Pressed steel

Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

Questions from Braythorn

Can landlords book you?

Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.

Do the materials smell?

A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.

Can you quote from photos?

Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Will the new finish last?

Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?

Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

What information do you need?

Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?

Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.

Do you cover Braythorn?

We do. Repair technicians travel to Braythorn from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

What affects the price in Braythorn

Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Braythorn. The price comes down to:

  • How hard the colour is to match
  • The type of damage
  • Access to the area
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Quotes from your pictures

Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:

  • A close-up of the damage, in focus
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • A picture taken from further back

Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job.

Landlord and trade work in Braythorn

If you manage property in Braythorn, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

Letting agents often send us photos 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.

How it works

The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

How to get a price

Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Braythorn, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What a repair can’t fix

Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Pressed steel baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Cast iron baths
  • Acrylic baths

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. 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.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.

What you get with us

  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • A year’s guarantee on all work
