Bath re-enamelling in Little Keyford without replacing anything
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most often call us about a coating lifting around the plughole and thin, worn enamel in places.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- 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.
Surfaces we repair

Should you replace it?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: 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.

Common problems we fix in Little Keyford
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Customers normally contact us about:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Wear marks under the taps
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

FAQs for Little Keyford
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
How long is the bath unusable?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.

Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Have chips seen to early
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for most of the day. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price

Landlord and trade work in Little Keyford
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
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.
What affects the price in Little Keyford
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Where you are, by postcode
- Something in shot to show the size
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
