Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Several chips and rust patches
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Who turns up on the day
- What protection goes down before work starts
- What preparation is included
What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a full day. We clean up when we are done and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the area is dry

Hightown questions
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Hightown.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hightown
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Wrexham and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What affects the price in Hightown
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What the surface is made of
- What kind of damage it is
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire bath
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
Should I try a DIY kit first?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Store bottles off the bath
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
Should you replace it?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day, with the bath back in use the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
