How we handle bath re-enamelling in Chesterton
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the next day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Common call-outs are for an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, across acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Have chips seen to early
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Repair dripping taps early
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Allow a full day. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Chesterton. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- The size and number of damaged areas
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Natural light rather than flash
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
What we cannot put right
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Chesterton
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is generally perfectly sound.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Lots of chips and rust spots
