How we handle bath re-enamelling in Hycemoor
We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the next day. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and thin, worn enamel in places.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Should you replace it?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Hycemoor: your questions answered
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Hycemoor?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Hycemoor
Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
Questions to ask before booking
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Hycemoor
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
The process
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take the best part of a day.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
