Bath re-enamelling in Marley, done in place
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are an old resurfacing that’s failing and chips and rust in more than one place.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Repair or replace in Marley?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
How to care for the repair
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Store bottles off the bath
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Respect the curing time we give you
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Marley
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Several chips and rust patches
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Wear marks under the taps
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How to look after the finish
FAQs for Marley
Are there extra charges for Marley?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
How long is the bath unusable?
Normally one day, with the bath ready the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes a full day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Marley. What changes the price is:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Access to the area
- What the surface is made of
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Marley. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- One picture of the whole bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
