Repairs by material
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Bath re-enamelling in Harefield without replacing anything
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Whether it’s worn patches where water runs and sits and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can help, on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays alike.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we will sort it.

When to call us in Harefield
Often the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Several chips and rust patches

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We look at:
- How many areas need work
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- Unusual colours or finishes
There are no surprise extras on the day. 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.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the entire bath
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Details of any past repairs
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Looking after it afterwards
It’s all simple stuff:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Harefield
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Normally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
