Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hendra
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repair or replace in Hendra?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls 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. We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- Same prices wherever you are
- We leave the room as we found it

Different materials, different repairs
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.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.

Keeping it looking good
To keep it looking its best:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow the best part of a day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the day after.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
Get a quote
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 to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.

- Stains that won’t shift
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A coating lifting around the plughole
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Who will actually do the work
- What aftercare is recommended

What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
