- Resurfacing from £350

- A roll-top that is seen better days
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Bath re-enamelling in Copgrove, done in place
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Whether it’s an outdated colour you’d like to change and wear marks under the taps, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for most of the day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Common problems we fix in Copgrove
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Several chips and rust patches
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A coloured bath you want in white
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How to care for the finish
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Landlords, agents and businesses in Copgrove
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.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
Copgrove questions
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- One picture of the entire bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Most clients in Copgrove get their price from pictures. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top 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. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
