FAQs for Staxigoe
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. Inside and out.
Will the new finish last?
Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you need to take the bath out?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Common problems we fix in Staxigoe

Should you replace it?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, with the bath ready the next day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Staxigoe. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A bath split right through the body
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Landlord and trade work in Staxigoe
For anyone letting property in or around Staxigoe, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will come back with a combined price.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Staxigoe use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Staxigoe. The price reflects:
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
