Bath re-enamelling in Havering's Grove, done in place
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. If you’re dealing with staining under the taps and around the waste and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can help, on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths alike.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
When a repair is not the answer
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A metal bath with a through crack
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What kind of damage it is
- Access to the area
- The material
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A picture taken from further back
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
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.
FAQs for Havering's Grove
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Havering's Grove?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the next day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Do you cover the whole of Essex?
The entire UK, including all of Essex. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll offer you dates.
Will it make a mess?

How durable is a resurfaced bath?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.

Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.

- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

Repairing versus replacing in Havering's Grove
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day, with the bath back in use the following day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
