Bath re-enamelling in Great Green without replacing anything
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We are often asked to fix staining under the taps and around the waste and wear marks under the taps, in Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

I rent my home. Can I book you?

Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Store bottles off the bath
- Have chips seen to early
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Great Green
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Wear marks under the taps

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, with the bath ready the next day. Prices start from £350. A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Great Green. The price reflects:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
