Bath re-enamelling in Bury Green without replacing anything
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We are frequently asked to fix a bath in a colour that no longer suits and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Have chips seen to early
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Repair dripping taps early
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Bury Green
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
What areas do you cover?
The entire UK, including all of Hertfordshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Bury Green?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your SG11 postcode.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Do you come to Bury Green?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Bury Green from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
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.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, including:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
For landlords and businesses
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for a full day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, usually one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
