What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse off any bath products.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
Wakerley questions
How long will the bath be out of use?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Wakerley
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day, with the bath back in use the next day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

When to call us in Wakerley
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is usually perfectly sound.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Chips and rust in more than one place
Before booking anyone
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What happens if they find more damage
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the whole bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Something in shot to show the size
If you are in Wakerley and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
How the visit works
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes most of the day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
