Bath re-enamelling in Fence, done in place
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s a coloured bath you want in white and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, we can help, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
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.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Fence
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.

Fence questions
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Fence?

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building 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.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. 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. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
