Bath re-enamelling in Middle Park without the cost of replacing. Get a fixed quote from your pictures, then we come to you.
- Resurfacing from £350
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Middle Park
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Typical jobs include brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, across pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.

Related advice
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Middle Park
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
What happens next?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed price and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the photos. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can tenants book a repair?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Normally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
What do you need from me?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
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.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
