How we handle bath re-enamelling in Hartfield
We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It normally takes one visit, and can be used again the next day. If you are dealing with a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, we can help, on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths alike.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

How it works
When we visit, we arrive at the time we have agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take the best part of a day. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Make sure the area is dry

Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

When to call us in Hartfield
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Most people contact us after spotting something like this:
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An outdated colour you’d like to change

What else we do in Hartfield
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Common questions in Hartfield
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Hartfield. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
DIY kit or professional repair?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Hartfield. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
