About our bath re-enamelling in Cambourne
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s a coloured bath you want in white and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can usually put it right, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Cambourne
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Cambourne as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Cambridgeshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Common problems we fix in Cambourne
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
The things customers usually mention when they call include:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Questions to ask before you book
- What aftercare is recommended
- What preparation is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
Repairing versus replacing in Cambourne
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
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.
What happens on the day
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- 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 until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price

Cambourne questions
Do you work in Cambourne?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Cambourne and the rest of Cambridgeshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 normally the cheaper route.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
