About our bath re-enamelling in Emery Down
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. We work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are worn patches where water runs and sits and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
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. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Emery Down
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Emery Down?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Do you cover Emery Down?
We do. We send a technician to Emery Down for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Common problems we fix in Emery Down
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
Comparing quotes
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A bath that is rusted through
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What we do, step by step
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to most of the day, tidy-up included.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
