Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Bath re-enamelling in Elmdon without replacing anything
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are lots of chips and rust spots and thin, worn enamel in places.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Common problems we fix in Elmdon
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Lots of chips and rust spots

Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.

Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Does someone need to be in?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- One visit for most repairs
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Elmdon. The price reflects:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job without visiting.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
