Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Mowden, Essex
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing in Mowden, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
About our bath re-enamelling in Mowden
Re-enamelling is a one-day job for most baths, with the bath ready to use the following day. Nothing is disconnected or removed. Whether it’s an outdated colour you’d like to change and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can help, on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Mowden. The price depends on:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- A photo taken from further back
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job without visiting.
Repair or replace in Mowden?
Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Store bottles off the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Have chips seen to early
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for the best part of a day. Before we go, we’ll explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on

What else we do in Mowden
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Mowden
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Mowden as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Mowden questions
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Mowden?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
When a repair isn’t the answer
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath split right through the body
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
