Landlord and trade work in Watford
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Watford as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Northamptonshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Bath re-enamelling in Watford, done in place
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
What a repair can’t fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
What we work on

FAQs for Watford
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.

All of Northamptonshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your photos
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for most of the day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
