Landlords, agents and businesses in Wheatpieces
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Bath re-enamelling in Wheatpieces, done in place
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and several chips and rust patches.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Wheatpieces: your questions answered
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Do you come to Wheatpieces?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Wheatpieces and the rest of Gloucestershire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Why repair rather than replace?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Same prices wherever you are
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

What we’re called out for in Wheatpieces
Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Before booking anyone
- Who will actually do the work
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How the colour is matched
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
What a repair cannot fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.

DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
