Landlord and trade work in Matlock
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Derbyshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Matlock as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Matlock?
Often the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.
Look out for any of the following:
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
Questions to ask before you book
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the price covers travel
- How the colour is matched
- Who turns up on the day

When we’d advise against a repair
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- A metal bath with a through crack
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Have chips seen to early
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Common questions in Matlock
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What happens after I send photos?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Do you come to Matlock?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Matlock and the rest of Derbyshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The colour and finish to match
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
