What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
About our bath re-enamelling in Dora's Green
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. If you’re dealing with enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can normally put it right, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Dora's Green and across Surrey.

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Repair dripping taps early
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Repairing versus replacing in Dora's Green
Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

FAQs for Dora's Green
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Dora's Green?
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Stains that won’t shift
