How we handle bath re-enamelling in Markham
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is usually the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What happens on the day
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take most of the day, tidy-up included.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Advice
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Have chips seen to early
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What affects the price in Markham
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Markham. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job without visiting.
What we are called out for in Markham
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Most people contact us when they notice one of these:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A roll-top that is seen better days
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers

Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
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, a professional repair is worth it.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Markham
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Caerphilly and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Questions from Markham
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
