FAQs for Holborn Hill
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Holborn Hill. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
About our bath re-enamelling in Holborn Hill
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and chips and rust in more than one place.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
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.
What affects the price in Holborn Hill
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The type of damage
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Never use suction bath mats
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Holborn Hill
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes most of the day for most jobs. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Repairs by material
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 the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
