About our bath re-enamelling in Bourn
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the next day. Typical jobs include a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, in basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bourn. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why us?
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- One price list for the entire UK
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Bourn. The price comes down to:

There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Respect the curing time we give you
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
The process
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a full day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Bourn: your questions answered
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
How soon can you come?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Yes, we frequently do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
