Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There is no area surcharge for Broadwey. The price reflects:
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. Try to include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed quote.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Broadwey?
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Questions to ask before you book

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Common questions in Broadwey
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Broadwey.
How long will the bath be out of use?
One day for most baths, ready the following day. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Related advice
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Broadwey, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will price them together.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
How to care for the repair
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Repair or replace in Broadwey?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
