How we handle bath re-enamelling in Holbrooks
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Typical jobs include a roll-top that’s seen better days and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, in cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Holbrooks
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, with nothing wrong except the surface. The body of the bath is usually perfectly sound.
Look out for any of the following:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Wear marks under the taps
- Several chips and rust patches
- Stains that won’t shift
Before booking anyone
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Holbrooks: your questions answered

Are there extra charges for Holbrooks?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Related advice
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day. 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
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- No need to remove anything
- Colour mixed on the day to match

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Holbrooks. What changes the price is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Something in shot to show the size
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the entire item, with your CV6 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
