How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Bath re-enamelling in Higher Batson without replacing anything
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Whether it’s wear marks under the taps and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can help, on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Have chips seen to early
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Repairing versus replacing in Higher Batson
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
What you get with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- We leave the room as we found it
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
Take a look at our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- 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 next day.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Questions from Higher Batson
How long is the bath unusable?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Higher Batson included. Travel is included in the price.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
