A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Bath re-enamelling in Shobdon without replacing anything
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Have chips seen to early
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
For landlords and businesses
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Herefordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What we’re called out for in Shobdon
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Staining under the taps and around the waste

When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

What affects the price in Shobdon
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Shobdon. What changes the price is:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Shobdon. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole bath

- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
