About our bath re-enamelling in Gatton
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We work on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are worn patches where water runs and sits and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
What you get with us
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- A year’s guarantee on all work

Repairs by material
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’s the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
What affects the price in Gatton
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Gatton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine. Make sure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take the best part of a day, tidy-up included.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 often lifts.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
