Bath re-enamelling in Hornchurch Marshes without replacing anything
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. We work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about lots of chips and rust spots and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
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
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:

Honest limits
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Hornchurch Marshes: your questions answered
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
How long is the bath unusable?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the day after. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, we frequently do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A coloured bath you want in white

Landlords, agents and businesses in Hornchurch Marshes
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a full day, tidy-up included.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Keep a parking space free if you can
