Advice
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Hyde Heath
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Common call-outs are for a coating lifting around the plughole and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, in Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Common questions in Hyde Heath
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you cover Hyde Heath?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Hyde Heath from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Hyde Heath

Look out for any of the following:
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Stains that won’t shift
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Aftercare advice
- How long it needs to cure
What affects the price in Hyde Heath
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Hyde Heath, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Landlord and trade work in Hyde Heath
For anyone letting property in or around Hyde Heath, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Respect the curing time we give you
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A bath that is rusted through
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
