Bath re-enamelling at your home in Clatterford End
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and people most often call us about a coloured bath you want in white and worn patches where water runs and sits.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
What we are called out for in Clatterford End
Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Look out for these signs:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- An old resurfacing that is failing

How to look after the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Have chips seen to early
- Respect the curing time we give you
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Should you replace it?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Clatterford End questions
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
What happens if you find more damage?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Do you cover the entire of Essex?
Everywhere in the UK, Clatterford End included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you work in Clatterford End?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Clatterford End and the rest of Essex. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
