West End questions
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Landlord and trade work in West End
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in West End as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Common problems we fix in West End
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the price covers travel
- How to care for the finish
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

West End is one of 381 towns and villages in Hertfordshire where we work. We work right across the region, from West End to London (18 miles away).
Every address in AL9 is within our area, from the main roads to the quietest streets. We also cover the places around West End: Essendon (1 mile east), Hatfield Hyde (2 miles north-west), Little Berkhamsted (2 miles east), Letty Green (2 miles north-east) and Bell Bar (2 miles south).

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including West End. The price reflects:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
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. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Natural light rather than flash
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in West End
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths

- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
