Questions from Way Head

Do you need to take the bath out?

Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.

Can you change the colour of my bath?

Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.

What does bath re-enamelling cost?

Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.

How long will the bath be out of use?

Typically one day, with the bath ready the next day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Can you fix a peeling bath coating?

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.

Will you leave a mess?

We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Way Head

Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Whether it’s enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and lots of chips and rust spots, we can help, whatever the material.

We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What your bath is made of matters

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Acrylic

We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

Landlord and trade work in Way Head

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Way Head. What changes the price is:

  • How many items we do on one visit
  • How many areas need work
  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Access to the area

The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.

How to get a fixed quote

We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:

  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • The postcode, so we can plan the visit
  • A clear, close picture of the problem area
  • Any details about the material

We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

What we cannot put right

Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:

  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A metal bath with a through crack

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Materials we repair

  • Pressed steel baths
  • Cast iron baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Acrylic baths
  • Victorian roll-tops

Aftercare tips

Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:

  • Have chips seen to early
  • Wash away dyes and oils after use
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.

If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

How it works

A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a full day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
  4. We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.

Preparing for the visit

  • Keep a parking space free if you can
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Getting a price

Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in Way Head, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Why repair rather than replace?

If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Why book with us

  • Straight answers about what a repair can do
  • We come to you, anywhere in the UK
  • Colour-matched on site
  • One visit for most repairs

See our full price list or bath cost comparison.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
