Bath re-enamelling in Folksworth without the cost of replacing. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, then book a visit.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
How to care for the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Folksworth
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It normally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We work on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are a coating lifting around the plughole and chips and rust in more than one place.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Folksworth and across Cambridgeshire.

Landlord and trade work in Folksworth
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
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.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
