Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Hertfordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Much Hadham. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Much Hadham. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Details of any past repairs
- A picture taken from further back
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Never use suction bath mats
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, with the bath back in use the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How the visit works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access
Ask for a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
