Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Laffak. The price reflects:
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Getting a price from photos
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Bath re-enamelling in Laffak without replacing anything
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are wear marks under the taps and chips and rust in more than one place.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

How it works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take most of the day, tidy-up included.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- 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.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Related advice
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Materials we work on in Laffak
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Store bottles off the bath
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Laffak
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

Repair or replace in Laffak?
Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, with the bath ready the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.

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.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
When to call us in Laffak
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
Common reasons people in Laffak contact us are:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
What your quote should include
- What happens if they find more damage
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What prep work is covered
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
