When to call us in Northwood

You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Several chips and rust patches
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

What affects the price in Northwood
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Northwood. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A photo taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. 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.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Have chips seen to early
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
