Bath Re-enamelling for Engine Common homes
We travel to Engine Common for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A coloured bath you want in white
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Never use suction bath mats
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Bath re-enamelling in Engine Common without replacing anything
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Whether it’s a bath in a colour that no longer suits and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can help, on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What affects the price in Engine Common
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- How much damage there is
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
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’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Engine Common
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’ll handle the rest.
DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.

What else we do in Engine Common
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.

Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
