Bath re-enamelling at your home in Coldham
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Whether it’s a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can help, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths alike.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will come back.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Landlord and trade work in Coldham
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Coldham use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Coldham. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Coldham
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
How long is the bath unusable?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available

Common problems we fix in Coldham

- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Several chips and rust patches
- A coloured bath you want in white
What your quote should include
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price covers travel
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
- Whether they match the colour on site
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
