How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the following day.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Dollar use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Repairing versus replacing in Dollar
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Dollar. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- One price list for the whole UK
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Dollar questions
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
When a repair is not the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Store bottles off the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
