Bath re-enamelling in Driver's End without replacing anything
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the next day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a peeling or bubbling previous coating.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Have chips seen to early
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Never use suction bath mats
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. It normally takes a full day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- 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
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Driver's End?
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is generally as strong as ever.
The things customers typically mention when they call include:
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Chips and rust in more than one place
Before booking anyone
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- When it can be used again
- What preparation is included
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
