How we handle bath re-enamelling in Hell Corner
We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the day after. We are often asked to fix lots of chips and rust spots and a roll-top that’s seen better days, across cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Hell Corner and across West Berkshire.

Repair or replace in Hell Corner?
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. Prices start from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Questions from Hell Corner
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

We cover the whole UK, including Hell Corner and the rest of West Berkshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
For a price in Hell Corner, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hell Corner use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. It normally takes most of the day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
