Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Same prices wherever you are
- Nothing taken out or refitted

Bath re-enamelling in Quality Corner, done in place
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and lots of chips and rust spots.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Store bottles off the bath
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

The process
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. The job normally takes most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

What we’re called out for in Quality Corner
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Several chips and rust patches
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
Comparing quotes

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 often lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
FAQs for Quality Corner
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
