Why repair rather than replace?

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. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

Why us?

  • One price list for the whole UK
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • One visit for most repairs

Read our full price list and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Questions from Hampton in Arden

Does the bath have to be removed?

No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.

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.

What happens after I send photos?

We come back with a fixed price, normally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Can a failed resurfacing be redone?

Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.

Does re-enamelling smell?

There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Hampton in Arden

Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.

Look out for these signs:

  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Chips and rust in more than one place

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • How long it needs to cure
  • How changes to the job are handled
  • Who will actually do the work

10 questions to ask before you book

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Repair dripping taps early
  • Store bottles off the bath

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
