Bath re-enamelling in Brook Street 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 work on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are stains that won’t shift and several chips and rust patches.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Brook Street questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Honest limits
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Brook Street
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Common reasons people in Brook Street contact us are:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A coating lifting around the plughole
What your quote should include
- How the colour is matched
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes a full day. If anything looks different from your pictures, 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.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.
How to prepare
- Let us know about parking or access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Why repair rather than replace?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is usually much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Brook Street. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- A fixed quote before booking
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Colour mixed on the day to match
