Bath re-enamelling in Foulden, done in place
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we don’t cut corners on it. We work on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are a coloured bath you want in white and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Foulden as everywhere else we work.

Can I fix it myself?
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.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.

Common questions in Foulden
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you work in Foulden?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Foulden from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will the new finish last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the next day. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we will tell you.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Landlord and trade work in Foulden
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
What we do, step by step
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes most of the day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

What affects the price in Foulden
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Foulden, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Steel that has corroded right through
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
