Bath re-enamelling at your home in Bow
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. We work on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are chips and rust in more than one place and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Bow as everywhere else we work.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
What we can’t put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
Why repair rather than replace?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Why book with us
- Same prices wherever you are
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Everything repaired in place
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Common questions in Bow
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Do you cover the entire of Devon?
All of Devon, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Bow
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Bow. The price reflects:
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Bow
Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
Questions to ask before you book
- What prep work is covered
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How your room will be protected
- Whether they match the colour on site
