DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Repair or replace: which is better?
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. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Why book with us
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- One visit for most repairs
- No extra charge for your area
- No need to remove anything

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in North Weald Bassett
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.

Work for landlords and builders

Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and clear up. Allow most of the day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to care for it.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the day after, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Clear the area around the damage
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
Email us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CM16 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Advice
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
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 make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
