About our bath re-enamelling in Orcop Hill
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you are dealing with an outdated colour you’d like to change and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can usually put it right, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths alike.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

When to call us in Orcop Hill

Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Wear marks under the taps

DIY kit or professional repair?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
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.
When we would advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Orcop Hill. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a full day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.

Common questions in Orcop Hill
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and you will get one combined price.

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Herefordshire.
Are you a vetted contractor?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
