Bath re-enamelling in Hertford Heath, done in place
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we don’t cut corners on it. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and several chips and rust patches.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Make sure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Common questions in Hertford Heath
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you cover Hertford Heath?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and travel to Hertford Heath and the rest of Hertfordshire. Send pictures and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Do I have to be there?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How to look after the repair
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Store bottles off the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
When to call us in Hertford Heath
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, typically first under the taps and around the waste.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Several chips and rust patches

When a repair isn’t the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- What kind of damage it is
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Send photos for a quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what we need:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
