About our bath re-enamelling in Bradwell

Common call-outs are for a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and several chips and rust patches, in Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the next day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear the area around the damage

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Bradwell. The price reflects:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Bradwell?
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A coloured bath you want in white
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Wear marks under the taps
Questions to ask before you book
- How long it needs to cure
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Bradwell
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Essex.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Holes rusted through the metal
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
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 any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Should you replace it?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
