Bath re-enamelling at your home in Longhill
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. If you are dealing with chips and rust in more than one place and a roll-top that’s seen better days, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Never use suction bath mats
- Have chips seen to early
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

How it works
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. Most visits take the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Longhill as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Longhill
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send photos.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
