What we are called out for in Ilmer

Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
What to look for in a quote
- When it can be used again
- What preparation is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Who will actually do the work
About our bath re-enamelling in Ilmer
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the next day. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and wear marks under the taps.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Why repair rather than replace?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why book with us
- No extra charge for your area
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Colour-matched on site
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays

What affects the price in Ilmer
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Send us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Ilmer, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

Ilmer questions
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Ilmer?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your HP27 postcode.
Do you charge for travel?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Is it worth repairing rather 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.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
How it works
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- 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.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
