Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Wheeler End
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Letting agents often send us pictures 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.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes the best part of a day.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Open a window if you can

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
