About our bath re-enamelling in Hendra
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Common call-outs are for thin, worn enamel in places and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, across Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Hendra questions
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Are there extra charges for Hendra?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Hendra?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the entire item and your postcode.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Common problems we fix in Hendra
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, generally first under the taps and around the waste.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Several chips and rust patches
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
Before you book anyone

- Who will actually do the work

- How your room will be protected
How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Repair or replace in Hendra?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Hendra. The price reflects:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed quote.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
