About our bath re-enamelling in Gillow Heath
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. We are frequently asked to fix a coating lifting around the plughole and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, in basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Gillow Heath as everywhere else we work.

What we can’t put right
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
The process
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which usually takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the next day.
Before we arrive
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away whether it can be repaired.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Repairing versus replacing in Gillow Heath
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Gillow Heath
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Gillow Heath.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
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.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Store bottles off the bath
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
