What affects the price in North Hertfordshire
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Access to the area
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
For landlords and businesses
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in North Hertfordshire use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hospitality businesses can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in North Hertfordshire
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is typically perfectly sound.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Stains that won’t shift
Questions to ask before you book
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Repairing versus replacing in North Hertfordshire
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job usually takes the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
