Bath re-enamelling in Caldecote without replacing anything
We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It normally takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. We work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are wear marks under the taps and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Have chips seen to early
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Caldecote: your questions answered
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
