Bath re-enamelling at your home in Howle Hill
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the next day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We work on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and stains that won’t shift.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Howle Hill?
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Stains that won’t shift
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Wear marks under the taps
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Common questions in Howle Hill
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Howle Hill included. There is no extra charge for travel.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Howle Hill
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a full day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. We can’t fix:
- A bath split right through the body
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What affects the price in Howle Hill
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job without visiting.
