How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for most of the day. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and how to look after it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
How to prepare
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know about parking or access

Repairing versus replacing in Marlesford
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Why Marlesford clients choose us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Colour-matched on site
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- A year’s guarantee on all work
See our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
What we cannot put right
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

When to call us in Marlesford

Can I fix it myself?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
