How we handle bath re-enamelling in Burghfield Bridge
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. Whether it’s a coating lifting around the plughole and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Landlord and trade work in Burghfield Bridge
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Reading and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- The material and finish
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Why repair rather than replace?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
What you get with us
- Colour-matched on site
- One visit for most repairs
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- One-year guarantee on every repair

What happens on the day
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take the best part of a day, including clearing up.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the following day.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
