DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Bath re-enamelling in Jaywick without replacing anything
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. If you’re dealing with a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can generally put it right.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Jaywick and across Essex.

FAQs for Jaywick
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Jaywick.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you need to take the bath out?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Common problems we fix in Jaywick
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Stains that will not shift
- Several chips and rust patches
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Landlord and trade work in Jaywick
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Jaywick as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
For anyone letting property in or around Jaywick, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Just send photos for each address and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Jaywick. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take the best part of a day, and we will tell you if anything changes.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

What a repair cannot fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Jaywick
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Never use suction bath mats
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Repair or replace in Jaywick?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day. Prices start 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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
