When to call us in Hinchley Wood
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Stains that won’t shift
- Several chips and rust patches
- Thin, worn enamel in places

Bath re-enamelling in Hinchley Wood, done in place
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and several chips and rust patches.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Hinchley Wood and across Surrey.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
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.
What we can’t put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A bath split right through the body
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Materials we work on in Hinchley Wood

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Hinchley Wood. What changes the price is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The material
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Ensure they show:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Something in shot to show the size
- Details of any past repairs
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
What happens on the day
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. The job generally runs to most of the day, including clearing up.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
How to get a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
