Repair or replace in Hutton Mount?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A bath split right through the body
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
The process
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes the best part of a day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Never use suction bath mats
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Hutton Mount. The price reflects:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most clients in Hutton Mount get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Common questions in Hutton Mount
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Generally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
