How we handle bath re-enamelling in Henley
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. We are frequently asked to fix a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and several chips and rust patches, on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repair or replace in Henley?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.

Repairs by material
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.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a full day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Henley, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Henley?
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Thin, worn enamel in places

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Work for landlords and builders
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Henley as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
