About our bath re-enamelling in West Town
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and people most often call us about stains that won’t shift and a coating lifting around the plughole.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Landlord and trade work in West Town
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For anyone letting property in or around West Town, we will quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.

When to call us in West Town

The things customers normally mention when they call include:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Worn patches where water runs and sits

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll get on with it. Most visits take most of the day.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear the area around the damage

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- What it’s made of, if you know
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
