Bath Re-enamelling for Uphall homes
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing in Uphall, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Wear marks under the taps
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Bath re-enamelling in Uphall, done in place
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Uphall, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

When a repair isn’t the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A bath split right through the body
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
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.
Uphall: your questions answered
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Uphall
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.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
How the visit works
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a full day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
