Should I try a DIY kit 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, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
Bath re-enamelling in Blackbrook, done in place
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It normally takes one visit, and can be used again the next day. Typical jobs include a coating lifting around the plughole and thin, worn enamel in places, on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

How the visit works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Access to the area
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
