Wanborough questions
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Generally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Wanborough?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Do you come to Wanborough?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Wanborough. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
About our bath re-enamelling in Wanborough
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s thin, worn enamel in places and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, we can help.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What a repair can’t fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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 isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Repair or replace in Wanborough?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Wanborough
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wanborough use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for most of the day. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- 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.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
