About our bath re-enamelling in Foremark
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Typical jobs include chips and rust in more than one place and an old resurfacing that’s failing, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Common problems we fix in Foremark
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
Questions to ask before booking
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How to look after the finish
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Foremark questions
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working, which fades afterwards.
How do I book?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Should you replace it?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, with the bath back in use the next day. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- Work done at your home or business
- Every repair guaranteed for a year

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

How to look after the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Have chips seen to early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
