Bath re-enamelling in Little Thurrock, done in place
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Whether it’s an old resurfacing that’s failing and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, we can generally put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths alike.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

How to look after the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Have chips seen to early
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What we do, step by step
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take a full day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know about parking or access
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area

Other services in Little Thurrock
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Little Thurrock. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The colour and finish to match
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.

FAQs for Little Thurrock
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you come to Little Thurrock?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Little Thurrock from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
What if the damage is worse than the pictures show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
