About our bath re-enamelling in Long Hanborough
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It usually takes one visit, and can be used again the next day. Typical jobs include worn patches where water runs and sits and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, in acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

When we would advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops

- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- One picture of the entire bath
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your photos, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- 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.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Open a window if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Advice
Other services in Long Hanborough
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Have chips seen to early
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Long Hanborough
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will the price change on the day?
We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Long Hanborough
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
