Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What affects the price in Wearde
Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Wearde. The price reflects:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
Compared with replacing, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Most customers in Wearde get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Materials we work on in Wearde
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
What happens on the day
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Wearde?
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
People generally call us when they notice one of these:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Stains that will not shift
- A coating lifting around the plughole
Before booking anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the price covers travel
Why repair rather than replace?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
