Bath re-enamelling in Greensted without replacing anything
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. Common call-outs are for an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Greensted and across Essex.

What else we do in Greensted
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Repairing versus replacing in Greensted
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why us?
- No need to remove anything
- Fixed prices from your photos
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK

What we’re called out for in Greensted
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the price covers travel
- What preparation is included
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What affects the price in Greensted
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone. Make sure they show:
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the entire bath
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
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 come back to you with a fixed figure.

- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Advice
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
