Bath re-enamelling in Piccotts End, done in place
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Whether it’s a coloured bath you want in white and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can help.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.

What else we do in Piccotts End
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Landlord and trade work in Piccotts End
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes the best part of a day for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
