Bath re-enamelling in Bloomsbury without replacing anything
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the next day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. If you are dealing with a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can usually put it right.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Bloomsbury as everywhere else we work.

Repairing versus replacing in Bloomsbury
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
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 check it carefully.
How it works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes a full day. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Store bottles off the bath
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Bloomsbury?
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Clients normally contact us about:
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
Before you book anyone
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- If travel is included in the price
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Bloomsbury. The price comes down to:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Bloomsbury questions
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you cover Bloomsbury?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Bloomsbury from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
