What affects the price in Hardwicke
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Hardwicke. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A picture taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Bath re-enamelling in Hardwicke, done in place
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. If you are dealing with staining under the taps and around the waste and thin, worn enamel in places, we can help, whatever the material.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Hardwicke and across Gloucestershire.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes the best part of a day in most cases. We leave the room clean.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

What we’re called out for in Hardwicke
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
What your quote should include
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What aftercare is recommended
- How long it needs to cure
- What happens if they find more damage
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Never use suction bath mats
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
