The process

- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
For landlords and businesses
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.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Whether we combine several jobs
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
- Details of any past repairs
If you are in Little Thurlow and want a price, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

When to call us in Little Thurlow
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Wear marks under the taps
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Several chips and rust patches
Comparing quotes
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What aftercare is recommended
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether they match the colour on site
Should you replace it?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
