Bath re-enamelling in Hawkedon without replacing anything
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We work on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and common reasons people contact us are a bath in a colour that no longer suits and stains that won’t shift.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
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.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Landlord and trade work in Hawkedon
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
What affects the price in Hawkedon
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. What matters most is:
- How much damage there is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. It helps if you send:
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Other services in Hawkedon
Common problems we fix in Hawkedon
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
Questions to ask before booking
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How soon you can use it again
- How the room is protected while they work
What a repair cannot fix
We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays

What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes a full day.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
