What affects the price in Sheldwich Lees
Resurfacing from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Sheldwich Lees. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One picture of the entire bath
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Bath re-enamelling in Sheldwich Lees, done in place
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you’re dealing with an old resurfacing that’s failing and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Store bottles off the bath
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
Common problems we fix in Sheldwich Lees
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating

Sheldwich Lees questions
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

Are there extra charges for Sheldwich Lees?
There is no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath normally 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. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Sheldwich Lees. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
What you get with us
- Work done at your home or business
- We leave the room as we found it
- Same prices wherever you are
- Straight answers about what a repair can do

Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Sheldwich Lees as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes the best part of a day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
