FAQs for Upper Ruxley
Will the new finish last?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Upper Ruxley
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is usually the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Common call-outs are for an old resurfacing that’s failing and several chips and rust patches, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For a price in Upper Ruxley, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
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 the part we put right.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
