Bath re-enamelling in East Claydon, done in place
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. We work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and worn patches where water runs and sits.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Repairs by material
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.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

Why repair rather than replace?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
I rent my home. Can I book you?

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no charge for travel to East Claydon. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Send us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you are in East Claydon, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Never use suction bath mats
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Repair dripping taps early
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
