Bath re-enamelling in Milton of Leys, done in place
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We’re often asked to fix brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, across basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath split right through the body
- A bath that’s rusted through
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths

Repair or replace in Milton of Leys?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Milton of Leys. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Repair dripping taps early
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse off any bath products.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Milton of Leys. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
