Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Bath re-enamelling in Southend without replacing anything
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Our technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and chips and rust in more than one place.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Store bottles off the bath
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
When to call us in Southend
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
The things customers generally mention when they call include:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Stains that won’t shift
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Several chips and rust patches
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What prep work is covered
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How the room is protected while they work
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Southend. What changes the price is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A picture taken from further back
- What it’s made of, if you know
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Southend: your questions answered
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
What areas do you cover?
We cover the entire UK, including Southend and the rest of West Berkshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow the best part of a day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Clear the area around the damage
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job.
