How we handle bath re-enamelling in Ann Croft
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the day after. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and several chips and rust patches.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

FAQs for Ann Croft
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you quote from pictures?
Typically, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

What else we do in Ann Croft
Work for landlords and builders
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for the best part of a day. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Ann Croft. The price comes down to:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The type of damage
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Any details about the material
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
When we’d advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- A bath split right through the body
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths

Common problems we fix in Ann Croft
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Stains that will not shift

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Repair or replace in Ann Croft?
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. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
