Repair or replace in Wensley?
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, with the bath ready the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Why book with us
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Everything repaired in place
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
See our prices page and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Wensley
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Whether it’s enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, we can usually put it right, whatever the material.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a full day.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.

Wensley questions
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.

Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Store bottles off the bath
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What we can’t put right
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A metal bath with a through crack
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
