About our bath re-enamelling in Broadheath
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a coloured bath you want in white.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

Common questions in Broadheath
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you work in Broadheath?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Broadheath from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Typically, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for a full day. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- 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.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- Whether we combine several jobs
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Store bottles off the bath
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
