Newstead questions
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Common problems we fix in Newstead
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Stains that won’t shift
- Several chips and rust patches
- Wear marks under the taps
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
What to look for in a quote
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Who will actually do the work
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- If travel is included in the price
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for the best part of a day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
