Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Pressed steel

Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hartsholme

Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Common call-outs are for brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a coloured bath you want in white, across basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.

All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Hartsholme questions

Is there a smell?

Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.

What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?

The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.

Is it messy?

No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

How long is the bath unusable?

Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

What happens next?

You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.

Will the bath be moved?

No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

Why repair rather than replace?

A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day, with the bath back in use the following day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
  • We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Fixed prices from your pictures

Read our pricing and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What we cannot put right

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A metal bath with a through crack
  • Holes rusted through the metal

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on

  • Basins & shower trays
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Cast iron baths
  • Acrylic baths

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:

  • Access to the area
  • What the surface is made of
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • How much damage there is

Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Getting a price from pictures

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.

Work for landlords and builders

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

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.

How it works

From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes the best part of a day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.

  1. We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
  2. The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
  3. We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
  4. We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
  5. We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the following day.

Before we arrive

  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Keep a parking space free if you can

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
