Bath re-enamelling in Maldon without replacing anything
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Common call-outs are for several chips and rust patches and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, in cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone. Just ensure we can see:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire bath
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.

Repairs by material
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Maldon
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
What to look for in a quote
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What happens if they find more damage
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
Why repair rather than replace?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.

Maldon questions
What information do you need?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted before the end of a tenancy.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
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.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
