Bath re-enamelling in Great Canfield, done in place
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the day after. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We’re frequently asked to fix an outdated colour you’d like to change and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Great Canfield and across Essex.

Should you replace it?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Great Canfield: your questions answered
Is there a call-out fee?
We don’t add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. Inside and out.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
DIY kit or professional repair?
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.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
