Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hook
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Common call-outs are for a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Hook
Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- Wear marks under the taps
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
Comparing quotes
- How the room is protected while they work
- If travel is included in the price
- How long it needs to cure
- What happens if they find more damage
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
Repair or replace: which is better?

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Unusual colours or finishes
A few things move the price: 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.
Getting a price from pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Hook, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Hook: your questions answered
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
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 our work is guaranteed for a year.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you cover the entire of Greater London?
Across the UK, and that includes Hook. Prices don’t change with location.

The process
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for the best part of a day. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Getting a price

Advice
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. 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.
