Bath re-enamelling in Brackenlands, done in place
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We are frequently asked to fix staining under the taps and around the waste and a coloured bath you want in white, on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Questions from Brackenlands
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
How long does re-enamelling last?
Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.

How it works
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes most of the day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Open a window if you can

What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Email us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CA7 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, 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 is not prepared the repair won’t last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
