How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we’re there, the work takes most of the day for most jobs. The room is left tidy and you’ll know when it can be used.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear the area around the damage

Advice
About our bath re-enamelling in Chrishall
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

Chrishall: your questions answered
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
For landlords and businesses
If you manage property in Chrishall, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cambridgeshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Chrishall. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How much damage there is
There are no surprise 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.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Why repair rather than replace?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Common problems we fix in Chrishall
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, with nothing wrong except the surface. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
What to look for in a quote
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
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.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
