Bath re-enamelling in Morborne, done in place

We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Common call-outs are for chips and rust in more than one place and thin, worn enamel in places, across basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.

You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Can I fix it myself?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

Common problems we fix in Morborne

The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

If you can see any of these, send us a photo:

  • Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
  • A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
  • A coloured bath you want in white
  • Wear marks under the taps

What your quote should include

  • Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
  • Whether they match the colour on site
  • Whether a trained technician does the job

10 questions to ask before booking

Repairing versus replacing in Morborne

There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing usually wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Why choose Surface Doctor in Morborne

  • Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • One visit for most repairs
  • Dust sheets down, tidy finish

See our prices page and resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.

Landlord and trade work in Morborne

Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Cambridgeshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What we can’t put right

It helps to know what we cannot do too:

  • Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
  • A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
  • Steel that has corroded right through

Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we repair

  • Cast iron baths
  • Acrylic baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Pressed steel baths

The process

Nothing needs to be moved out of the room beforehand. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you are happy with the plan. Most jobs take most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.

  1. First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
  2. Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
  3. We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
  4. We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
  5. The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.

How to prepare

  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
  • Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
  • Open a window if you can

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Acrylic

Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Store bottles off the bath
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
  • Fix dripping taps quickly

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.

The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
