About our bath re-enamelling in Foxendown
We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It normally takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about wear marks under the taps and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

What affects the price in Foxendown
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How much damage there is
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

What else we do in Foxendown
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Repair dripping taps early
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
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 and makes resurfacing more work.
What we do, step by step
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job typically takes most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
Repair or replace: which is better?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why us?
- No extra charge for your area
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- No need to remove anything
- Rooms protected and left tidy
Take a look at our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Foxendown questions
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.

Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
