How we handle bath re-enamelling in Brookhouses
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the next day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and lots of chips and rust spots.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Questions from Brookhouses
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Brookhouses included. There is no extra charge for travel.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
What a repair cannot fix
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
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.
Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed quote the same day in most cases.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
