The process
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Open a window if you can

Advice
About our bath re-enamelling in Marehill
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and people most often call us about chips and rust in more than one place and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

For landlords and businesses
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material
- Access to the area
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Send photos for a quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole bath
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s natural to want to try a repair 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.
How to care for the repair
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Store bottles off the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops

Marehill: your questions answered
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
