Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hanford
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a bath in a colour that no longer suits and lots of chips and rust spots.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Common questions in Hanford
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hanford
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Hanford as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Hanford. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your photos
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
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’ll reply with a fixed price.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Hanford?
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A coloured bath you want in white

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
