Bath re-enamelling in Caversham Park Village, done in place
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It typically takes one visit, and can be used again the next day. Typical jobs include a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and worn patches where water runs and sits, across basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A metal bath with a through crack

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole bath
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

- 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.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, with the bath back in use the next day. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
