For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Castle as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Bath re-enamelling in Castle, done in place
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Whether it’s an outdated colour you’d like to change and several chips and rust patches, we can normally put it right.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Steel that has corroded right through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Advice
FAQs for Castle
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.

What affects the price in Castle
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. 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.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Castle?
Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, usually first under the taps and around the waste.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Worn patches where water runs and sits

Repairing versus replacing in Castle
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day, with the bath back in use the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
