Bath re-enamelling in Hope Mansell without replacing anything
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about an outdated colour you’d like to change and worn patches where water runs and sits.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Common problems we fix in Hope Mansell
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, with nothing wrong except the surface. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- Thin, worn enamel in places
Before you book anyone
- Who will actually do the work
- What happens if they find more damage
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether the price covers travel
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
When we would advise against a repair
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A bath split right through the body
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take the best part of a day, including clearing up.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- The material, if you know it
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Most customers in Hope Mansell get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

Questions from Hope Mansell
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
How long will the bath be out of use?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Do you work in Hope Mansell?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Hope Mansell for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We come back with a fixed price. There is no obligation to book.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Why book with us
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- We leave the room as we found it
