Bath re-enamelling in Braiseworth, done in place
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. We’re frequently asked to fix a roll-top that’s seen better days and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, across cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

- Steel that has corroded right through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Landlord and trade work in Braiseworth
Letting agents frequently send us pictures 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.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Braiseworth. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- The material
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the entire bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Common problems we fix in Braiseworth
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Common reasons people in Braiseworth contact us include:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Lots of chips and rust spots
What your quote should include
- How to care for the finish
- How your room will be protected
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What happens if they find more damage
How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Common questions in Braiseworth
Do I need to be at home?

How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?

It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
