About our bath re-enamelling in Holden
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, and you can use the bath the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Whether it’s a peeling or bubbling previous coating and lots of chips and rust spots, we can help, whatever the material.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The material, if you know it
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Can I fix it myself?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
What else we do in Holden
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
The process
Here’s how a visit typically runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for the best part of a day from start to finish. Before we go, we’ll explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Open a window if you can
Ask for a price
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Holden, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Holden?
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, generally first under the taps and around the waste.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Wear marks under the taps
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- Several chips and rust patches
- An outdated colour you’d like to change

Questions from Holden
How do I book?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Are there extra charges for Holden?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
How long does re-enamelling 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 it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.
Can tenants book a repair?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Holden?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How soon can you come?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How to care for the repair
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Store bottles off the bath
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Should you replace it?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
