Bath re-enamelling in Grove, done in place
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We work on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are worn patches where water runs and sits and staining under the taps and around the waste.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How many areas need work
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Send photos for a quote
You can usually get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your DN22 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
How the visit works
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes most of the day in most cases. We leave the room clean.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Grove?
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Several chips and rust patches
- Wear marks under the taps
Questions to ask before you book
- How the colour is matched
- How to look after the finish
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Grove use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.

When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath

Should you replace it?

The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Grove
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we’ll ask for another photo.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. The old repair comes out first.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How long is the bath unusable?
Typically a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
