DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 typically the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
About our bath re-enamelling in Sutton Cheney
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Typical jobs include staining under the taps and around the waste and chips and rust in more than one place, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface without moving it. Prices start from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why book with us
- One price list for the whole UK
- Typically one visit, start to finish

- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

What we’re called out for in Sutton Cheney
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
What to look for in a quote
- What preparation is included
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How the colour is matched
Honest limits
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
