About our bath re-enamelling in Chiswell Green
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It normally takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. Common call-outs are for thin, worn enamel in places and lots of chips and rust spots, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

Common questions in Chiswell Green
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Do you cover the whole of Hertfordshire?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.

How to look after the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
