Bath re-enamelling in Buntingford, done in place
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a bath in a colour that no longer suits and staining under the taps and around the waste.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
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.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Buntingford. The price comes down to:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Common questions in Buntingford
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Buntingford included. There is no extra charge for travel.
Will there be a smell?
Expect a mild smell while we are working.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
The process
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Getting a price

The most common problems we are called about are:
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Lots of chips and rust spots
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

Should you replace it?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is usually much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
