Bath re-enamelling in Heyrod without replacing anything
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Typical jobs include a coloured bath you want in white and wear marks under the taps, across cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Questions from Heyrod
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
What do you need from me?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Heyrod as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Why repair rather than replace?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is normally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?
- A fixed quote before booking
- Same prices wherever you are
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
