About our bath re-enamelling in Little Everdon
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Whether it’s chips and rust in more than one place and a coating lifting around the plughole, we can normally put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Access to the area
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Something in shot to show the size

- One sharp close-up of the damage
Send us photos of the damage and one of the whole item, with your NN11 postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
How it works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A roll-top that is seen better days

Questions from Little Everdon
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
