Bath Re-enamelling for Finchingfield homes
Bath re-enamelling in and around Finchingfield: a fixed quote from pictures, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Thin, worn enamel in places
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Bath re-enamelling in Finchingfield, done in place
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Typical jobs include an outdated colour you’d like to change and a roll-top that’s seen better days, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Finchingfield and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: 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.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Never use suction bath mats
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Finchingfield
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Finchingfield use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
When to call us in Finchingfield
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.
Most people get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
What your quote should include
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What preparation is included
- How your room will be protected
- Aftercare advice
When a repair isn’t the answer
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.

How the visit works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for most of the day. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.

Questions from Finchingfield
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Will the price change on the day?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Are there extra charges for Finchingfield?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
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 Finchingfield?

Can you redo someone else’s repair?

Repair or replace: which is better?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the next day. Prices start from £350. 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.
