Cowley questions
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Will the new finish last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. There is no obligation to book.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Greater London.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Cowley. Prices do not change with location.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

What else we do in Cowley
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
When we would advise against a repair
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Repair dripping taps early
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
