Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and people most frequently call us about stains that won’t shift and a roll-top that’s seen better days.

FAQs for High Entercommon
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Typically, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
Do you come to High Entercommon?
We do. We send a technician to High Entercommon for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You will get a fixed quote back. You are under no obligation.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.

Can I fix it myself?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Landlord and trade work in High Entercommon
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff, just a few sensible habits:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Repair or replace in High Entercommon?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is usually much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good.
