The fact is if a person wants the best advice in the case of bath repairs and restoration the average DIY person will not get the perfect result. This is a specialist area and requires a professional company to get the right result, if any one wants advice they can get it but having the materials and advice alone will not give you the desired results. There is a kit advertised on this site often, the fact is I get a substantial amount of work from those inexperienced people who attempt to recoat their bath with this product, we the professionals are trying to save you time and money.

Thats why we make a living at bath resurfacing.
Because we know the answers to all of the above questions, and a hundred others that have not occured to you.
You pay for what we know .

Hi Andy.
We have just purchased a cottage that needs so much work. The plumber has taken out the original bath to replace with new and a friend has commented on how beautiful the 'old' bath was. So, I have spent the night 'thinking' and ended up on 'the web' looking for help?
The main problem will perhaps be cost. I'd love to re-use the rolled top bath with feet but finances are tight. What sort of cost is involved? Where can I take it?
Many thanks...I'm sure you are bored with this same question that seems to pop onto your site over and over.
Have a great Christmas if you haven't time to get back to me.
Regards
Collette

Its worth having a go.You might surprise yourself.good luck and Merry christmas Ronnie

Hi Cat, i was under the impression that you would be calling me.
no problem if you have decided to buy a new bath, but you cant beat a good cast iron bath.
