Why repair rather than replace?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing generally costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

FAQs for Prestwood
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Landlord and trade work in Prestwood
For anyone letting property in or around Prestwood, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we will price them together.
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.

When to call us in Prestwood
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Stains that won’t shift
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
Comparing quotes
- How changes to the job are handled
- If travel is included in the price

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Have chips seen to early
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Prestwood. The price comes down to:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- Any details about the material
- A photo taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath that’s rusted through
