About our bath re-enamelling in Custom House
We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the next day. If you are dealing with enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and thin, worn enamel in places, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re covered after the visit.

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Have chips seen to early
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Honest limits
We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Advice
What affects the price in Custom House
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
FAQs for Custom House
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Custom House?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your E16 postcode.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Usually, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How long is the bath unusable?
Usually one day, with the bath ready the day after. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
