Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Questions from Hunsdon
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
Do you work in Hunsdon?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Hunsdon. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.

- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.

Landlord and trade work in Hunsdon
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Steel that has corroded right through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Have chips seen to early
- Store bottles off the bath
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
