About our bath re-enamelling in Alexandria
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are lots of chips and rust spots and stains that won’t shift.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

The process
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take the best part of a 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.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
How to get a price
Upload a picture of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Alexandria, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Related advice
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Other services in Alexandria
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
What we’re called out for in Alexandria
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
Look out for these signs:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A coating lifting around the plughole

Common questions in Alexandria
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
