When to call us in Uploders
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- How the colour is matched
Bath re-enamelling in Uploders without replacing anything
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We regularly repair acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a coating lifting around the plughole and wear marks under the taps.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What else we do in Uploders
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DT6 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Uploders use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Repairing versus replacing in Uploders
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One visit for most repairs

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Uploders

How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take most of the day, including clearing up.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Common questions in Uploders
What happens if you find more damage?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote. There’s no obligation to book.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Normally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
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.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
