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. We are often asked to fix an old resurfacing that’s failing and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, across basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What else we do in East Shefford
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Repair or replace in East Shefford?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before you book
- Everything repaired in place
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Can I fix it myself?
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.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take most of the day, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
For a price in East Shefford, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Advice
Common problems we fix in East Shefford
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Several chips and rust patches
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
Questions to ask before you book
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What protection goes down before work starts
What affects the price in East Shefford
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
