Bath re-enamelling at your home in Burnham Green
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We are often asked to fix a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, across Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- The material
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
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 without visiting.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
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 fails, we can still put it right.
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
Landlord and trade work in Burnham Green
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Why repair rather than replace?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- A fixed quote before booking
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- One price list for the whole UK

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Burnham Green
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Burnham Green
Often the bath has just had decades of use. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.
Common reasons people in Burnham Green contact us are:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
What to look for in a quote
- How changes to the job are handled
- How to care for the finish
- What prep work is covered
- When it can be used again
When a repair isn’t the answer
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
