Bath re-enamelling in Broad Oak without replacing anything
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. If you are dealing with a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can help, on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

When to call us in Broad Oak
Enamel does not fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, generally first under the taps and around the waste.
Customers generally contact us about:
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Wear marks under the taps
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A coloured bath you want in white

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:

- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Broad Oak. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Different materials, different repairs
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.
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.
When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A bath split right through the body
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up

How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes the best part of a day for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Repair or replace in Broad Oak?
Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, with the bath ready the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why us?
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Same prices wherever you are
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Broad Oak use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
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.
