What affects the price in East Mains
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including East Mains. What changes the price is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire bath
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.

What else we do in East Mains
East Mains: your questions answered
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there’s more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
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.
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 frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Why repair rather than replace?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for East Mains. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why book with us

- Rooms protected and left tidy
- A fixed quote before booking

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Store bottles off the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Common problems we fix in East Mains
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Look out for any of the following:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Wear marks under the taps
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
What your quote should include
- How your room will be protected
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What happens if they find more damage
- Who will actually do the work

How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
