The Pludds questions
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Gloucestershire.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
About our bath re-enamelling in The Pludds
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Whether it’s thin, worn enamel in places and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store bottles off the bath
- Have chips seen to early
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

How it works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A photo taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

- A coloured bath you want in white
- A coating lifting around the plughole

When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do too:

- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair

- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Landlord and trade work in The Pludds
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in The Pludds use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Gloucestershire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Repairs by material
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
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
