Other services in Park Wood
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Park Wood
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

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 the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Park Wood
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
Questions to ask before you book
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What prep work is covered
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
Park Wood: your questions answered
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
What happens after I send pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths, ready the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Why repair rather than replace?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
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.
