Bath re-enamelling in Launton without replacing anything
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It usually takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We’re frequently asked to fix staining under the taps and around the waste and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, across cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Landlord and trade work in Launton
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Launton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from pictures
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. 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.

When we would advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
What we do, step by step
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
