About our bath re-enamelling in Ilmington
We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Typical jobs include a bath in a colour that no longer suits and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, in acrylic baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Why us?
- One price list for the whole UK
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- Nothing taken out or refitted

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Just ensure we can see:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Details of any past repairs
- One picture of the whole bath
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
Common problems we fix in Ilmington
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Customers generally contact us about:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Several chips and rust patches
- A coloured bath you want in white

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes a full day. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
How to get a price
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 to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Questions from Ilmington
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote with dates.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Are you accredited?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Respect the curing time we give you
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
