Common questions in North Stoke
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in North Stoke?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.

What affects the price in North Stoke
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Where you are, by postcode
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What happens on the day
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
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.
Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in North Stoke
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
Look out for these signs:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A coloured bath you want in white
What to look for in a quote
- Aftercare advice
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- How your room will be protected
