Bath re-enamelling in Standon Green End, done in place
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about a coloured bath you want in white and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Standon Green End
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- How many items we do on one visit
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
How the visit works
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- 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.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What else we do in Standon Green End
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Standon Green End
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.

Across the UK, so Standon Green End is covered. Prices do not change with location.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
