Bath re-enamelling at your home in Marske-by-the-Sea
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Whether it’s thin, worn enamel in places and a coloured bath you want in white, we can help, whatever the material.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Store bottles off the bath
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Work for landlords and builders
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Marske-by-the-Sea as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
What we’re called out for in Marske-by-the-Sea
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Stains that won’t shift
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Several chips and rust patches
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- How the room is protected while they work
What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Marske-by-the-Sea. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
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.
