How we handle bath re-enamelling in Langham
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We’re frequently asked to fix a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, in pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Common questions in Langham
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Repair dripping taps early
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
When to call us in Langham
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is usually perfectly sound.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Several chips and rust patches
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How the room is protected while they work
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- How long it needs to cure
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
When we’d advise against a repair
We will not take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
Landlord and trade work in Langham
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for the best part of a day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

What affects the price in Langham
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Langham. The price comes down to:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
