Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
FAQs for Ellerker
Do you come to Ellerker?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Ellerker from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How long is the bath unusable?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
When to call us in Ellerker
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Common reasons people in Ellerker contact us are:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Stains that will not shift
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A coating lifting around the plughole
Comparing quotes
- How the room is protected while they work
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How soon you can use it again
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A bath split right through the body
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What affects the price in Ellerker
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A photo taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your HU15 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why Ellerker clients choose us
- Fixed prices from your photos
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- We leave the room as we found it
