Bath re-enamelling in Hogben's Hill without replacing anything
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and worn patches where water runs and sits.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface 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.
Landlord and trade work in Hogben's Hill
If you manage property in Hogben's Hill, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Hogben's Hill?
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Worn patches where water runs and sits

Questions from Hogben's Hill
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
