About our bath re-enamelling in Hoaden
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. Common call-outs are for several chips and rust patches and worn patches where water runs and sits, in pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Send photos for a quote
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A photo taken from further back
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Repairing versus replacing in Hoaden
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and generally a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Nothing taken out or refitted

What we can’t put right
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A bath that is rusted through
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths

Common problems we fix in Hoaden
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Several chips and rust patches
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An old resurfacing that is failing
Before you book anyone
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- If travel is included in the price
- How long it needs to cure
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Let us know about parking or access

Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
