Hindlip questions
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Do you come to Hindlip?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Hindlip for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.
Bath re-enamelling in Hindlip, done in place
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Whether it’s worn patches where water runs and sits and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can typically put it right, on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Hindlip
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Several chips and rust patches
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Thin, worn enamel in places

DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
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
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes a full day. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Hindlip, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hindlip use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A bath that is rusted through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths

Why repair rather than replace?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
