Bath re-enamelling at your home in Newington Green
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. If you are dealing with several chips and rust patches and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, we can help, on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths alike.
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.

Why repair rather than replace?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Prices start from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Get any chip repaired quickly
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
How it works
We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes most of the day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Make sure the area is dry
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- What the surface is made of
- Access to the area
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Getting a price from pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed quote back. There’s no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Holes rusted through the metal
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Landlord and trade work in Newington Green
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Newington Green use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
