Bath re-enamelling in Groton without replacing anything
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Typical jobs include a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and thin, worn enamel in places, across cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

What we do, step by step
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a full day, including clearing up.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CO10 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The material
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse off any bath products.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- Fixed prices from your photos
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- We leave the room as we found it

What a repair can’t fix
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
When to call us in Groton
Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.

For landlords and businesses

Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
