Bath re-enamelling at your home in Foggbrook

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

DIY kit or professional repair?

A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Prices and what affects them

Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Foggbrook. The price comes down to:

  • The material and finish
  • Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.

Quotes from your photos

It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:

  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates
  • A wider photo showing the entire bath

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

FAQs for Foggbrook

Do the materials smell?

Expect a mild smell while we’re working that clears as it cures.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.

Do I have to be there?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.

What happens once I’ve sent pictures?

We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.

Can pets and children be at home?

We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.

Landlord and trade work in Foggbrook

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Repair or replace: which is better?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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.

What you get with us

  • Usually one visit, start to finish
  • CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

How the visit works

When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes most of the day. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
  • Clear the area around the damage

Get a quote

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

When we’d advise against a repair

It helps to know what we cannot do:

  • A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Cast iron baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Basins & shower trays

Common problems we fix in Foggbrook

Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, normally first under the taps and around the waste.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • An old resurfacing that’s failing
  • An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • Stains that will not shift

What your quote should include

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • What prep work is covered
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
