Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from pictures
When you take your pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the entire bath
- Something in shot to show the size
- Natural light rather than flash
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Common questions in Stratford St Andrew
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Suffolk, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing generally wins. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stratford St Andrew as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.

When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Respect the curing time we give you
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
