Bath re-enamelling at your home in Boxworth
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. If you are dealing with stains that won’t shift and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, we can help.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Never use suction bath mats
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Repair or replace: which is better?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Boxworth: your questions answered
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. Inside and out.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
When to call us in Boxworth

- Wear marks under the taps
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Stains that will not shift
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price covers travel
- When it can be used again
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
What else we do in Boxworth
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How much damage there is
- The material
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A photo taken from further back
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes most of the day in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Landlords, agents and businesses in Boxworth
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cambridgeshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. 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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
