FAQs for Gretton
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
How long is the bath unusable?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Do you work in Gretton?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Gretton. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Gretton
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. Whether it’s thin, worn enamel in places and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What else we do in Gretton
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
When to call us in Gretton
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Chips and rust in more than one place

- How to care for the finish
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What preparation is included
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Gretton. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Store bottles off the bath
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
When we’d advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why book with us
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- One price list for the whole UK
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- One-year guarantee on every repair

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
