Bath Re-enamelling in Colliers End
Damaged bath in Colliers End? We repair it in place, match it on site and guarantee the work for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
About our bath re-enamelling in Colliers End
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
When to call us in Colliers End
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Stains that will not shift

How it works
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Ensure the area is dry
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

Common questions in Colliers End
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Hertfordshire.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Colliers End?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit generally costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts 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 affects the price in Colliers End
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
