Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
What we’re called out for in Hilperton
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is generally as strong as ever.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- An old resurfacing that is failing

- Whether the colour is mixed to match

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A metal bath with a through crack
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

- Cast iron baths

Questions from Hilperton
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Never use suction bath mats
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
