Bath re-enamelling in Henlow Camp, done in place
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. We regularly repair acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are thin, worn enamel in places and stains that won’t shift.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

What else we do in Henlow Camp
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Repairs by material
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.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
How to care for the repair
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What affects the price in Henlow Camp
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Access to the area
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
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.
Getting a price from photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
If you’re in Henlow Camp and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Advice
FAQs for Henlow Camp
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Henlow Camp?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Do you cover Henlow Camp?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Henlow Camp. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Henlow Camp
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll arrange it.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
