Bath re-enamelling at your home in High Ellington
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. Whether it’s a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a coloured bath you want in white, we can generally put it right, on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths alike.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
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 isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
High Ellington questions
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed price, usually with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your pictures. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your HG4 postcode.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material
- The type of damage
- The size and number of damaged areas
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.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Any details about the material
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a full day, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Repair or replace in High Ellington?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why us?
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- Fixed prices from your photos
- One price list for the entire UK
- We leave the room as we found it

When to call us in High Ellington
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Wear marks under the taps
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- A coloured bath you want in white
Before booking anyone
- How soon you can use it again
- How the room is protected while they work

Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in High Ellington use us as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
