Common questions in Upware
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
What areas do you cover?
All of Cambridgeshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
What happens if you find more damage?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How do I book?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
About our bath re-enamelling in Upware
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath in a colour that no longer suits and staining under the taps and around the waste.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a full day. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, usually first under the taps and around the waste.

- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Staining under the taps and around the waste

Repairing versus replacing in Upware
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
