Hornchurch questions
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Do you work in Hornchurch?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Hornchurch for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Hornchurch?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hornchurch
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can help, on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays alike.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Greater London.

How the visit works
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes a full day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

Advice
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, a professional repair is worth it.
When we would advise against a repair
It helps to know what we can’t do:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Look out for these signs:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Hornchurch. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, repairing generally costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
You can usually get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the whole bath
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
