Questions from Hellescott
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.

What affects the price in Hellescott
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to most of the day.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- 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 next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Different materials, different repairs
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
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- No extra charge for your area
- Work done at your home or business
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Colour-matched on site

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Hellescott
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is typically perfectly sound.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
Questions to ask before you book
- What happens if they find more damage
- How soon you can use it again
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
