Bath re-enamelling in Greenlaw, done in place
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We work on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are lots of chips and rust spots and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

FAQs for Greenlaw

We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Greenlaw.
Do I have to be there?

Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Common problems we fix in Greenlaw
Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Several chips and rust patches
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
Before you book anyone
- What prep work is covered
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- If travel is included in the price
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

The process
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes most of the day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Different materials, different repairs
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.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
