Landlords, agents and businesses in Clap Hill
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Clap Hill
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Typical jobs include a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, in acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Clap Hill questions
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Why repair rather than replace?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, with the bath back in use the following day. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Have chips seen to early
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes the best part of a day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
