Advice
Bath re-enamelling at your home in St Julians
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about worn patches where water runs and sits and lots of chips and rust spots.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Landlord and trade work in St Julians
If you manage property in St Julians, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
Letting agents frequently 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.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
What affects the price in St Julians
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the whole bath
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 will reply with a fixed price.
Questions from St Julians
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
How long is the bath unusable?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day, with the bath back in use the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in St Julians
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
Look out for these signs:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Lots of chips and rust spots
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How changes to the job are handled
- What preparation is included
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
