- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Should you replace it?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Guilt Cross questions
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the day after. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you work in Guilt Cross?
We do. Technicians travel to Guilt Cross from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What affects the price in Guilt Cross
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- The type of damage
- How many areas need work
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many items we do on one visit
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
If you are in Guilt Cross and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Have chips seen to early
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Landlord and trade work in Guilt Cross
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Guilt Cross as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A bath split right through the body
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we work on in Guilt Cross
