Should you replace it?

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Timsbury. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Bath re-enamelling in Timsbury without replacing anything
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. If you’re dealing with lots of chips and rust spots and wear marks under the taps, we can normally put it right.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, and the work is guaranteed.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Questions from Timsbury
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
How long is the bath unusable?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Common problems we fix in Timsbury
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Lots of chips and rust spots
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether they match the colour on site
- When it can be used again
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Ensure the area is dry
How to get a price
