Bath re-enamelling at your home in Malborough
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is normally the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. If you’re dealing with a coating lifting around the plughole and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, we can help.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
FAQs for Malborough
Do you cover Malborough?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Malborough from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
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.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What happens on the day
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes the best part of a day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- 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.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Repair or replace in Malborough?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. Otherwise, resurfacing normally wins. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
What affects the price in Malborough
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How much damage there is
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
How to get a fixed price
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Something in shot to show the size
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Malborough
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.

When to call us in Malborough
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Stains that will not shift

- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Chips and rust in more than one place
