- Stains that won’t shift
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Monkey Street
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Common call-outs are for thin, worn enamel in places and an old resurfacing that’s failing, in Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
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, and the work is guaranteed.

We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Monkey Street as well as householders. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.

What affects the price in Monkey Street
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- What the surface is made of
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Details of any past repairs
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface without moving it. Prices start from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book.
Why us?
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Monkey Street
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What do you need from me?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Store bottles off the bath
- Have chips seen to early
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
How it works
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes the best part of a day in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
