Bath re-enamelling in Headley without replacing anything
We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It typically takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Whether it’s a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can typically put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
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.
How it works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow a full day. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. 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.

What else we do in Headley
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Headley
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
People typically call us when they notice something like this:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

Headley: your questions answered
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
What information do you need?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Are there extra charges for Headley?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
