Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths

Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
About our bath re-enamelling in Harrowcross
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Typical jobs include a roll-top that’s seen better days and an outdated colour you’d like to change, across pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take the best part of a day, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Preparing for the visit

- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Let the surface dry out before the visit

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
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, then guarantee it for a year.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Common problems we fix in Harrowcross
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Customers generally contact us about:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is matched
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
When we’d advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You’ll see the full price before booking.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
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 over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
