How we handle bath re-enamelling in Heron Quays
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and common reasons people contact us are an outdated colour you’d like to change and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
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.
Questions from Heron Quays
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
What areas do you cover?
The whole UK, including all of Greater London. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Do the materials smell?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working, which fades afterwards.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, plus dates. You are under no obligation.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, 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.

What else we do in Heron Quays
Can I fix it myself?
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.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What we can’t put right
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Heron Quays
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths

How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. Allow a full day, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
