How to care for the repair

Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:

  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
  • Never use suction bath mats

Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

About our bath re-enamelling in Hightown Heights

Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. If you’re dealing with a bath in a colour that no longer suits and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can normally put it right.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

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.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The type of damage

Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Send photos for a quote

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
  • Where you are, by postcode
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • What it’s made of, if you know

No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

What a repair can’t fix

To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:

  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we repair

  • Pressed steel baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Cast iron baths

For landlords and businesses

We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Repairs by material

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.

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

What we do, step by step

Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a full day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about parking, stairs or access
  • Let us know which floor the room is on
  • Make sure the area is dry

Common questions in Hightown Heights

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

Are there extra charges for Hightown Heights?

We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.

Is there a smell?

A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Does someone need to be in?

Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.

Is my repair covered?

Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.

Will you leave a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
