FAQs for Hunsdonbury
Can you price it without visiting?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Related advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Why repair rather than replace?
A refit takes several trades and several days. 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. There are no surprise 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.
Why book with us
- Work done at your home or business
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hunsdonbury use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
If you manage property in Hunsdonbury, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
