About our bath re-enamelling in Hough
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. Whether it’s a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can typically put it right.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What affects the price in Hough
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- The material, if you know it
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Where you are, by postcode
To get a price, send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Hough: your questions answered
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
What happens if you find more damage?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, often. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Do you work in Hough?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Hough from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
Repairing versus replacing in Hough
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- A fixed quote before booking
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Never use suction bath mats
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hough
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Common problems we fix in Hough
Often the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. The body of the bath is typically perfectly sound.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
What to look for in a quote
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
When a repair is not the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A bath split right through the body
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
