About our bath re-enamelling in Haughley
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Whether it’s staining under the taps and around the waste and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Advice
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Repair dripping taps early
- Respect the curing time we give you
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
Questions from Haughley
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Will the new finish last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Haughley as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Common problems we fix in Haughley
Older baths frequently have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Haughley. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send photos for a quote
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the entire bath
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
