How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes most of the day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Bath re-enamelling in Wilcott without replacing anything
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. If you are dealing with a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can help.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Shropshire.

Work for landlords and builders
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Repair dripping taps early
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What we can’t put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
Repair or replace in Wilcott?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why choose Surface Doctor in Wilcott
- Nothing taken out or refitted

- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Wilcott. What changes the price is:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Where you are, by postcode
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Common questions in Wilcott
How long will the bath be out of use?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Are there extra charges for Wilcott?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Do you cover the entire of Shropshire?
The entire UK, including all of Shropshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we’ll confirm dates.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Shropshire.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
