For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Waterside as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it generally costs far less than a refit.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.

Common questions in Waterside
Will the new finish last?
Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
What happens after I send photos?
You will get a fixed quote back, generally with dates to choose from. There is no obligation to book.

What affects the price in Waterside
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. These are the things that affect it:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
- One sharp close-up of the damage
If you are in Waterside and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes most of the day. We leave the room clean.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Related advice
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Have chips seen to early
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
