Bath Re-enamelling for Faulkbourne homes
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing for homes and businesses in Faulkbourne and across Essex. Free, fixed quotes from your pictures.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Have chips seen to early
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Bath re-enamelling in Faulkbourne without replacing anything
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Common call-outs are for an old resurfacing that’s failing and a roll-top that’s seen better days, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How the visit works
Your technician turns up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. Most visits take a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the next day.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Should you replace it?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There is no area surcharge for Faulkbourne. What changes the price is:
- What kind of damage it is
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Faulkbourne: your questions answered
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Faulkbourne?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
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.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
