- Resurfacing from £350
- A coating lifting around the plughole

What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Bath re-enamelling in Childerditch without replacing anything
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Our technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Childerditch and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What affects the price in Childerditch
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
For a price in Childerditch, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Respect the curing time we give you
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 and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
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 is what we repair.
Childerditch questions
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.

- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Advice
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

Repairing versus replacing in Childerditch
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
