Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Bath re-enamelling in Brayford without replacing anything
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We’re often asked to fix a coating lifting around the plughole and stains that won’t shift, across cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Should you replace it?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.

Common questions in Brayford
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths, ready the next day. We give you timings with the quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
How soon can you come?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The material
- How much damage there is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and no obligation.
What we’re called out for in Brayford
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
The things clients normally mention when they call include:
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
Before booking anyone
- Whether the price covers travel
- How long it needs to cure
- How the room is protected while they work
- What happens if they find more damage
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Have chips seen to early
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Point us to the nearest place to park

What we can’t put right

- A bath split right through the body
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
