Bath re-enamelling in Camulodunum, done in place
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and several chips and rust patches.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Camulodunum and across Essex.

What affects the price in Camulodunum
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Camulodunum. The price reflects:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One picture of the entire bath
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Camulodunum: your questions answered
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. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Camulodunum and the rest of Essex. Send your postcode with your photos and we will offer you dates.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you need to take the bath out?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Repair or replace in Camulodunum?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Allow the best part of a day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit

- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Landlord and trade work in Camulodunum
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Essex and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Common problems we fix in Camulodunum
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Look out for any of the following:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Wear marks under the taps
Comparing quotes
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What prep work is covered
- When it can be used again
- What happens if they find more damage
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
