Bath re-enamelling in Woodmansterne, done in place
We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Common call-outs are for an outdated colour you’d like to change and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Woodmansterne as everywhere else we work.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

How it works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a full day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Any details about the material
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
FAQs for Woodmansterne
Is a repair better than a new one?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Are there extra charges for Woodmansterne?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.

- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Store bottles off the bath
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
