Bath re-enamelling at your home in Markbeech
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Our technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about thin, worn enamel in places and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Steel that has corroded right through
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

For landlords and businesses
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
What we do, step by step
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we’re doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take the best part of a day.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Advice
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Markbeech. The price reflects:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Access to the area
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Markbeech
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send photos.
Do you work in Markbeech?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Markbeech for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
