About our bath re-enamelling in Herodsfoot
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Whether it’s a bath in a colour that no longer suits and stains that won’t shift, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Get any chip repaired quickly
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Herodsfoot: your questions answered
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Herodsfoot?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Repairing versus replacing in Herodsfoot
Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the following day. Prices start from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Herodsfoot?
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Look out for these signs:
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Wear marks under the taps
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
Before you book anyone
- When it can be used again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How changes to the job are handled
- How to look after the finish
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
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.
