Common questions in Stanground
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
What happens after I send photos?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Bath re-enamelling in Stanground without replacing anything
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Common call-outs are for staining under the taps and around the waste and a coloured bath you want in white, in pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- What kind of damage it is
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire bath
- Details of any past repairs
Most customers in Stanground get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Repairing versus replacing in Stanground
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why book with us
- Typically one visit, start to finish
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Fixed prices from your pictures

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for a full day. Before leaving, we tell you 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.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
What else we do in Stanground
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Have chips seen to early
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
When a repair isn’t the answer
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
