Bath re-enamelling at your home in Great Wilbraham
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We regularly repair cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

Materials and what they mean for 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.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Great Wilbraham
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Several chips and rust patches
Questions to ask before booking
- What prep work is covered
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Respect the curing time we give you
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse off any bath products.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Common questions in Great Wilbraham
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we will tell you before starting.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Should you replace it?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
