Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Stains that will not shift
- A coating lifting around the plughole

Landlords, agents and businesses in Carlton Husthwaite
For anyone letting property in or around Carlton Husthwaite, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
The process
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price

Should you replace it?
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. Prices start 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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- A fixed quote before booking
- Colour-matched on site

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
What affects the price in Carlton Husthwaite
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One picture of the entire bath
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
