DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Repairing versus replacing in Sapey Common
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Sapey Common questions
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Landlord and trade work in Sapey Common
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sapey Common as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- The material, if you know it
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Sapey Common
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Several chips and rust patches
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Stains that won’t shift
What to look for in a quote
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How changes to the job are handled
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
