Bath Re-enamelling for Ebford homes
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing in Ebford, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Several chips and rust patches
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Ebford
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Common call-outs are for thin, worn enamel in places and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
We do not add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Ebford?
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Clients typically contact us about:
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Wear marks under the taps
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
What we cannot put right
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A bath split right through the body
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays

Questions from Ebford
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. Inside and out.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Usually one day, with the bath ready the day after. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Is there any odour?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
If you manage property in Ebford, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Allow the best part of a day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Have chips seen to early
- Never use suction bath mats
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
