What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A bath split right through the body
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
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 will reply with a fixed price.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Lickey questions
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Birmingham.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- One price list for the entire UK
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Colour-matched on site
See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Store bottles off the bath
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Lickey?
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Several chips and rust patches
