Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Shard End
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about stains that won’t shift and thin, worn enamel in places.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Shard End questions
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes most of the day. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.

- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.

Work for landlords and builders
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Warwickshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Shard End as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
What we are called out for in Shard End
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
The things clients usually mention when they call include:
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

What affects the price in Shard End
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
If you’re in Shard End and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
