Bath re-enamelling at your home in Bower Heath
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Whether it’s a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can help.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Hertfordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- No extra charge for your area
- One visit for most repairs

How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a full day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What a repair cannot fix
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A bath split right through the body
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Respect the curing time we give you
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Repairs by material
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 what we repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
