FAQs for Stirtloe
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Stirtloe and the rest of Cambridgeshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will confirm dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Bath re-enamelling in Stirtloe, done in place
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We’re frequently asked to fix a bath in a colour that no longer suits and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- The type of damage
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- The material, if you know it
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Stirtloe
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stirtloe as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes a full day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
