About our bath re-enamelling in Harpsden Bottom
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We work on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are thin, worn enamel in places and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Harpsden Bottom
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Have chips seen to early
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
