Bath re-enamelling in Longformacus, done in place
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Whether it’s several chips and rust patches and a coloured bath you want in white, we can help, on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. 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.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Landlord and trade work in Longformacus
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
Repair or replace in Longformacus?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is normally much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Everything repaired in place
- One price list for the entire UK
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Keeping it looking good
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Never use suction bath mats
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale cannot build up.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The type of damage
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.

- 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 day after, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Clear the area around the damage
