How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take a full day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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, and the work is guaranteed.
Should you replace it?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing usually wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with nothing added on the day.

What else we do in Wickhambrook
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- A picture taken from further back
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Wickhambrook
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote with dates.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Repair dripping taps early
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
