The process
You do not need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

When to call us in Hopgrove
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A coloured bath you want in white
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How to look after the finish
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hopgrove questions
How long is the bath unusable?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the day after. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Hopgrove?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do you work in Hopgrove?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Hopgrove. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, with the bath back in use the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
What you get with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Honest limits
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
