- Resurfacing from £350

When a repair isn’t the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Great Shoddesden
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the next day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. If you’re dealing with brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Landlord and trade work in Great Shoddesden
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Questions from Great Shoddesden
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Typically, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Are there extra charges for Great Shoddesden?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Why repair rather than replace?
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 also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Advice
Repairs by material
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.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
