About our bath re-enamelling in Hungarton
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. We work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are lots of chips and rust spots and a coating lifting around the plughole.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths

For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Why repair rather than replace?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Hungarton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

How it works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep a parking space free if you can
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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.

Hungarton questions
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
What we’re called out for in Hungarton
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
