West View: your questions answered
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There is no obligation to book.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in West View
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We regularly repair cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about worn patches where water runs and sits and a coloured bath you want in white.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair

Do you need bath re-enamelling in West View?
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Stains that will not shift
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- An old resurfacing that is failing
What to look for in a quote
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How your room will be protected
- Who turns up on the day
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including West View. What changes the price is:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Send photos for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
If you’re in West View and want a price, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What we do, step by step
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
