Bath re-enamelling in Wardy Hill, done in place
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. If you’re dealing with an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can help.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we cannot put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Holes rusted through the metal
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes the best part of a day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can

Advice
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Wardy Hill
Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Wear marks under the taps

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Wardy Hill
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Should you replace it?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
