Bath re-enamelling in Northwood without replacing anything
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Typical jobs include a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a bath in a colour that no longer suits, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Other services in Northwood
Can I fix it myself?
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Northwood: your questions answered
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
Will the price change on the day?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you quote from pictures?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
What affects the price in Northwood
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and you’ll get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
What we’re called out for in Northwood
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
Get in touch if you’ve noticed:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes a full day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- 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
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
How to get a price
Most clients in Northwood get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Dry the bath after use if possible, and rinse off any bath products.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Should you replace it?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the day after. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
