How we handle bath re-enamelling in Hilton
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Typical jobs include an outdated colour you’d like to change and a coating lifting around the plughole, across basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
What happens on the day
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- 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
- Let us know about parking or access
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Related advice
When to call us in Hilton
Often the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is typically as strong as ever.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Several chips and rust patches
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A coating lifting around the plughole
What to look for in a quote
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether they match the colour on site
- If travel is included in the price
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing usually wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Why book with us
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- One price list for the whole UK
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Generally one visit, start to finish

What a repair cannot fix
In fairness, there are a few things a repair will not fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A bath that’s rusted through

What else we do in Hilton
Work for landlords and builders
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Questions from Hilton
Will the new finish last?
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.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Hilton. Our prices are the same everywhere.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
