Bath re-enamelling at your home in Harwich
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. Whether it’s a bath in a colour that no longer suits and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can help.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we will come back.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Never use suction bath mats
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
Landlord and trade work in Harwich
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Harwich as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Should you replace it?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. On site, it takes the best part of a day for most jobs. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the area is dry

What affects the price in Harwich
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- What kind of damage it is
- How much damage there is
- The colour and finish to match
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed price
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed quote.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- A bath split right through the body
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
Common questions in Harwich
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Essex.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
