Bath re-enamelling for Bugbrooke homes

How it works

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes the best part of a day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

  1. First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
  2. Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
  3. The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
  4. We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
  5. The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Bugbrooke

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Common call-outs are for a coloured bath you want in white and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, across Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.

A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY kit or professional repair?

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, with the bath ready the day after. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Why book with us

  • Colour mixed on the day to match
  • Rooms protected and left tidy
  • CHAS and Constructionline accredited
  • Typically one visit, start to finish

Read our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Honest limits

A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:

  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Holes rusted through the metal

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Materials we repair

  • Cast iron baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Victorian roll-tops

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Bugbrooke?

Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
  • An outdated colour you’d like to change

Before booking anyone

  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How soon you can use it again
  • What prep work is covered
  • Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?

Our hiring checklist

What bath re-enamelling costs

Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Bugbrooke. What changes the price is:

  • What kind of damage it is
  • Whether we combine several jobs
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas

Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Bugbrooke. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Quotes from your photos

When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Your postcode, so we can check dates

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:

  • Avoid suction-cup mats
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
  • A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
  • A dripping tap should be fixed promptly

Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
