How we handle bath re-enamelling in Chinese Quarter
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Common call-outs are for a roll-top that’s seen better days and several chips and rust patches, on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
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.
What affects the price in Chinese Quarter
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Chinese Quarter. The price comes down to:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
We price from photos 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 will get a fixed figure back.
What we can’t put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Repair or replace in Chinese Quarter?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. 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 doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
The process
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. Plan for a full day. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
