Repairing versus replacing in Broadmeadows
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. 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.
Why book with us
- No extra charge for your area
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- One visit for most repairs

About our bath re-enamelling in Broadmeadows
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the next day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a coloured bath you want in white.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

What else we do in Broadmeadows
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Broadmeadows
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths, ready the next day. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Broadmeadows 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.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Broadmeadows
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
The things clients normally mention when they call include:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
Before you book anyone
- What aftercare is recommended
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What prep work is covered
- How changes to the job are handled
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A bath split right through the body
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths

- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What affects the price in Broadmeadows
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price.
