Repairs by material

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

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 the part we put right.

Questions from Headless Cross

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Headless Cross?

Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.

Can you make a coloured bath white?

Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.

Can you do the outside of a roll-top?

Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Are you a vetted contractor?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?

In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.

Can you price it without visiting?

In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

When can you do it?

Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

Honest limits

A repair is not right for every job, for example:

  • A bath that’s rusted through
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • A bath split right through the body

When to call us in Headless Cross

Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Thin, worn enamel in places
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Lots of chips and rust spots
  • Stains that won’t shift

What your quote should include

  • How to look after the finish
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
  • When it can be used again
  • How your room will be protected

How to compare quotes

How the visit works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take a full day.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Before we arrive

  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
  • Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Getting a price

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
  • Keep suction mats out of the bath

Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on 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.
