Questions from Gastard
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Gastard
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and chips and rust in more than one place.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’re 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.
What a repair can’t fix
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths

What else we do in Gastard
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
What we do, step by step
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 job takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Get a quote
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
