About our bath re-enamelling in Cranbrook Common
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. If you are dealing with a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can help, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes most of the day in most cases. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. You will get a fixed price, not an estimate.
Advice
Should you replace it?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Send pictures for a quote
Two or three clear photos are normally enough. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Upload a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, and tell us you are in Cranbrook Common, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
When a repair is not the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
FAQs for Cranbrook Common
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
