Bath re-enamelling in Aveley without replacing anything
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. If you are dealing with an outdated colour you’d like to change and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can help, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Repair or replace: which is better?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Aveley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the whole bath
- Where you are, by postcode
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
If you are in Aveley and want a price, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which usually takes a full day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the following day.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your RM15 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Work for landlords and builders
For anyone letting property in or around Aveley, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we’ll price them together.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Thurrock and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
FAQs for Aveley
Will it make a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Do you cover the whole of Thurrock?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Aveley?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
