Upgate Street: your questions answered
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Bath re-enamelling in Upgate Street without replacing anything
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Whether it’s chips and rust in more than one place and an outdated colour you’d like to change, we can help.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- A bath split right through the body
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
Common problems we fix in Upgate Street
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
Customers normally contact us about:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A coating lifting around the plughole
What your quote should include
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How your room will be protected
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How changes to the job are handled
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
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.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
