When a repair is not the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths

Bath re-enamelling in Sheldon, done in place
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Whether it’s a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, we can usually put it right, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays alike.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Sheldon. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size
There’s 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’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Work for landlords and builders
If you manage property in Sheldon, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
How it works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a full day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Sheldon?
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Several chips and rust patches
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
Before you book anyone
- What preparation is included
- Who will actually do the work
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Aftercare advice
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Have chips seen to early
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Store bottles off the bath
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
FAQs for Sheldon
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you cover Sheldon?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Sheldon from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths, ready the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
