Milton: your questions answered
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you cover Milton?
We do. We send a technician to Milton for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Milton
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We are often asked to fix enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

The process
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work 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 look after it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Advice
What your bath is made of matters
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. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Work for landlords and builders
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.
For anyone letting property in or around Milton, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays

What affects the price in Milton
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Milton. What changes the price is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Milton
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Look out for any of the following:
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Thin, worn enamel in places
Comparing quotes
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How to care for the finish
- Whether they match the colour on site
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
