Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface.

When we’d advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes the best part of a day for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Related advice
What we’re called out for in Chorleywood West
Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Contact us if you’ve noticed any of these:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
Questions to ask before booking
- What prep work is covered
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether the price covers travel
- How changes to the job are handled
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why book with us
- No extra charge for your area
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Rooms protected and left tidy
Read our prices page or bath cost comparison.
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Yes. Inside and out.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Will the price change on the day?

Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
