Questions from Ravenstone

Do you charge for travel?

There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.

Will there be a smell?

A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.

What happens next?

We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.

Will there be fumes?

Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

How do I book?

Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:

  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material
  • How easy the damage is to reach
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out

There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Quotes from your photos

A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material
  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

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, with the outside refinished as well.

Should you replace it?

If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

What we cannot put right

We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • Steel that has corroded right through
  • Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we repair

  • Pressed steel baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Cast iron baths
  • Victorian roll-tops

Aftercare tips

After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

How the visit works

From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes most of the day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.

  1. We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

How to prepare

  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Make sure the room can be ventilated
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

How to get a price

There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
