What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. Allow a full day, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Flordon
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. If you’re dealing with a coloured bath you want in white and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can usually put it right.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Flordon: your questions answered
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Repair or replace in Flordon?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The material and finish
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Details of any past repairs
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most clients in Flordon get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Landlord and trade work in Flordon
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Flordon use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
What we’re called out for in Flordon
Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
Customers normally contact us about:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
What to look for in a quote
- How changes to the job are handled
- Who will actually do the work
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Repair dripping taps early
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Flordon

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
