How we handle bath re-enamelling in Hanwood
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. If you’re dealing with a coating lifting around the plughole and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can typically put it right.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?
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 normally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What affects the price in Hanwood
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Hanwood. The price depends on:
- The material
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How many items we do on one visit
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Hanwood: your questions answered
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit normally costs less than separate visits. Include photos of each item.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Do you come to Hanwood?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Hanwood. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is repairing better 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.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What a repair can’t fix
We will not take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A bath that’s rusted through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
How to look after the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
