Longham questions
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Longham?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Bath re-enamelling in Longham, done in place
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and people most often call us about a coloured bath you want in white and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:

- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Landlord and trade work in Longham
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Longham. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- No extra charge for your area
- Generally one visit, start to finish
- No need to remove anything
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Longham, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
