Bath re-enamelling at your home in East Hunsbury
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. If you’re dealing with a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can typically put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays alike.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee.

How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow a full day. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price

When a repair isn’t the answer
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we work on in East Hunsbury
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
Keeping it looking good
It’s all simple stuff:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
Common questions in East Hunsbury
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in East Hunsbury?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Why repair rather than replace?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.
