When to call us in Woodford Halse

The things clients generally mention when they call are:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
Questions to ask before you book
- How the colour is matched
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- When it can be used again
- How your room will be protected
Bath re-enamelling in Woodford Halse, done in place
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It usually takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Typical jobs include a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

What affects the price in Woodford Halse
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Woodford Halse. The price comes down to:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One picture of the entire bath
- Natural light rather than flash
- What it’s made of, if you know
If you’re in Woodford Halse and want a price, photos are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Why repair rather than replace?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Woodford Halse: your questions answered
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How do I book?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A bath split right through the body
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Northamptonshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Never use suction bath mats
- Store bottles off the bath
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Getting a price
You do not need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
