Bath Re-enamelling for Ashmore Green homes
Fixed-price bath re-enamelling in Ashmore Green and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A coating lifting around the plughole
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Bath re-enamelling in Ashmore Green, done in place
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Typical jobs include a coating lifting around the plughole and wear marks under the taps, in cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

When we’d advise against a repair
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
What we’re called out for in Ashmore Green
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Thin, worn enamel in places

Why repair rather than replace?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Fix dripping taps quickly
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
