Bath re-enamelling in Hillhouse, done in place
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. If you’re dealing with an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can help, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Respect the curing time we give you
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Can I fix it myself?
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.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Questions from Hillhouse
Will the new finish last?
Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
