Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in High Cross, Hertfordshire
Fixed-price bath re-enamelling in High Cross and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Resurfacing from £350

How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can generally be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Bath re-enamelling in High Cross without replacing anything
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a peeling or bubbling previous coating.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
What we cannot put right
Some jobs are not right for a repair, including:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and typically one day, with the bath ready the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
Why us?
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- One visit for most repairs
- No extra charge for your area
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited

Landlord and trade work in High Cross
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Hertfordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What affects the price in High Cross
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and no obligation.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in High Cross?
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
Questions to ask before you book
- Aftercare advice
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How the colour is matched
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
