About our bath re-enamelling in Crockerhill
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, we can usually put it right.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll come back.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a full 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.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Open a window if you can

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Respect the curing time we give you
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Work for landlords and builders
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For anyone letting property in or around Crockerhill, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
