Bath re-enamelling in Longriggend, done in place
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Typical jobs include thin, worn enamel in places and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, across Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
Every repair is covered by our one-year guarantee.

What we cannot put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
DIY repairs versus a professional job
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Respect the curing time we give you
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Longriggend. What changes the price is:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Send pictures for a quote
Phone photos are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- What it’s made of, if you know
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, include your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
