How we handle bath re-enamelling in Brackenhall
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you’re dealing with wear marks under the taps and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Repair dripping taps early
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
FAQs for Brackenhall
Can I add another job to the visit?

Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Should you replace it?

Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Brackenhall. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

What affects the price in Brackenhall
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For a price in Brackenhall, the easiest route is photos: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Brackenhall?

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. We protect the area first, then the work takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.
