What else we do in Manfield
Repair or replace in Manfield?

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

How it works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow most of the day. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- The type of damage
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
Email us photos of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Manfield, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Manfield: your questions answered
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
How long is the bath unusable?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
