What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hansel Village
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. If you are dealing with wear marks under the taps and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can help.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Landlord and trade work in Hansel Village
If you manage property in Hansel Village, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will price them together.
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Access to the area
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Have chips seen to early
- Never use suction bath mats
- Store bottles off the bath
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Hansel Village questions
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we’ll quote them together.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Hansel Village?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
What happens on the day
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the next day.
How to prepare
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Open a window if you can
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Hansel Village?
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Lots of chips and rust spots

Repair or replace in Hansel Village?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
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.
