What else we do in Longsdon
Repairing versus replacing in Longsdon
Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface without moving it. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
FAQs for Longsdon
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Generally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What a repair can’t fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- A bath that is rusted through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Have chips seen to early
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Longsdon?
Often the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is usually perfectly sound.
Common reasons people in Longsdon contact us include:
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How soon you can use it again

- What preparation is included
