Bath re-enamelling in Burrough End without replacing anything
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is generally the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Common call-outs are for wear marks under the taps and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

DIY kit or professional repair?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Common problems we fix in Burrough End
Often the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
Look out for any of the following:
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Chips and rust in more than one place
What to look for in a quote
- How soon you can use it again
- How to care for the finish
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How changes to the job are handled
Common questions in Burrough End
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Burrough End?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your CB8 postcode.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Cambridgeshire.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
How long does re-enamelling last?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Never use suction bath mats
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
Landlord and trade work in Burrough End
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Burrough End as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cambridgeshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Allow a full day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
