Common questions in Epping Upland
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Essex.
Can you quote from photos?
Generally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Epping Upland
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. We regularly repair acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
What affects the price in Epping Upland
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Epping Upland. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Send photos for a quote
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes most of the day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear the area around the damage

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Epping Upland?
Often the bath has just had decades of use. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Wear marks under the taps
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

Repair or replace in Epping Upland?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day, with the bath back in use the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Epping Upland as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
