Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Bath re-enamelling in Westward Ho!, done in place
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Typical jobs include a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a coloured bath you want in white, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Repair or replace in Westward Ho!?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Repair dripping taps early
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
FAQs for Westward Ho!
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Are there extra charges for Westward Ho!?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, frequently. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A bath split right through the body
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it

What affects the price in Westward Ho!
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many items we do on one visit
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Where you are, by postcode
- One picture of the whole bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
The process
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for 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.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
