About our bath re-enamelling in Great Parndon
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. We work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about an old resurfacing that’s failing and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

When to call us in Great Parndon
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Clients typically contact us about:
- Stains that won’t shift
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Worn patches where water runs and sits

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Respect the curing time we give you
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and no obligation.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
What we do, step by step
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Make sure the area is dry

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
