How we handle bath re-enamelling in Longford
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Our repair technicians work on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a coloured bath you want in white.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Can I fix it myself?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- What the surface is made of
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

What else we do in Longford
Common problems we fix in Longford
Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- A roll-top that is seen better days
Comparing quotes
- How to care for the finish
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What protection goes down before work starts
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
The process
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- 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.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get 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.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
