What we are called out for in Flempton
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed any of these:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Lots of chips and rust spots

- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Honest limits
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- A bath that is rusted through
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths

Repairing versus replacing in Flempton
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. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Store bottles off the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Flempton: your questions answered
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Typically, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Are there extra charges for Flempton?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
How long is the bath unusable?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Flempton. What changes the price is:
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Flempton, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Flempton
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- 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.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for 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. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
