DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
Bath re-enamelling in Chesterton without replacing anything
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Typical jobs include an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and several chips and rust patches, on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Have chips seen to early
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Chesterton: your questions answered
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Chesterton?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you work in Chesterton?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Chesterton and the rest of Cambridgeshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Common problems we fix in Chesterton
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
The things clients usually mention when they call include:
- Several chips and rust patches

- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow the best part of a day. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Chesterton, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
What a repair cannot fix
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Chesterton
