What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes a full day, depending on what we find, 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.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Fitzhead
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. If you’re dealing with a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can normally put it right.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.

- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Fitzhead. What changes the price is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any details about the material
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Fitzhead, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
What we’re called out for in Fitzhead
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A roll-top that is seen better days
Questions to ask before booking
- Aftercare advice
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price covers travel
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Questions from Fitzhead
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Are there extra charges for Fitzhead?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Everything repaired in place
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
Read our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
