Bath re-enamelling in Boyton Cross, done in place
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. If you’re dealing with a peeling or bubbling previous coating and lots of chips and rust spots, we can help, on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Should you replace it?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Boyton Cross: your questions answered
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Are there extra charges for Boyton Cross?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Boyton Cross
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll handle the rest.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Essex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Boyton Cross. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- One picture of the entire bath
- Any details about the material
- Something in shot to show the size
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Repair dripping taps early
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

When to call us in Boyton Cross
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Stains that will not shift

- How the colour is matched
- Who will actually do the work

What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and start once you’re happy with the plan. It typically takes most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- 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 generally be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
