About our bath re-enamelling in Hethe
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We are frequently asked to fix a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a coloured bath you want in white, on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes the best part of a 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.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price
If you are in Hethe and want a price, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Related advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

What a repair cannot fix
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A bath split right through the body
- A bath that is rusted through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we work on in Hethe
- Pressed steel baths

Repairing versus replacing in Hethe
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Hethe. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Why us?
- We leave the room as we found it
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
- Most jobs done in one visit

What affects the price in Hethe
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
