Bath re-enamelling in Lower Bush, done in place
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We’re often asked to fix a coating lifting around the plughole and several chips and rust patches, in pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Lower Bush as everywhere else we work.

Can I fix it myself?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Lower Bush
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
When we’d advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Holes rusted through the metal
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths

Common questions in Lower Bush
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Lower Bush is covered. Prices do not change with location.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What affects the price in Lower Bush
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can price the job.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand, so you’re not left guessing. Once we’re there, the work takes most of the day in most cases. The room is left tidy.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away whether it can be repaired.
Related advice
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. 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.
