FAQs for Westwood
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
About our bath re-enamelling in Westwood
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It generally takes one visit, and can be used again the next day. We work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and people most often call us about thin, worn enamel in places and stains that won’t shift.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Westwood and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Never use suction bath mats
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Common problems we fix in Westwood
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Stains that won’t shift
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- A coloured bath you want in white
Questions to ask before you book
- Who will actually do the work
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What preparation is included
- What happens if they find more damage
For landlords and businesses
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
How it works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
