Bath re-enamelling at your home in Little Laver
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Common call-outs are for a roll-top that’s seen better days and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, in Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Never use suction bath mats
- Have chips seen to early
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
The process
Here’s how a visit normally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Plan for the best part of a day. Before we go, we will explain how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
Ask for a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
