Bath re-enamelling in Hale Common, done in place
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Whether it’s lots of chips and rust spots and thin, worn enamel in places, we can help, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
For a price in Hale Common, the easiest route is pictures: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Questions from Hale Common
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. If there’s more, we will tell you before starting.
How long is the bath unusable?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Hale Common?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your PO36 postcode.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Normally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we’re called out for in Hale Common

People typically call us after spotting one of these:
- Several chips and rust patches

- Stains that will not shift
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

Advice

For anyone letting property in or around Hale Common, we will quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
