About our bath re-enamelling in Palmer's Green
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Common call-outs are for wear marks under the taps and a roll-top that’s seen better days, in acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are covered after the visit.

Repairing versus replacing in Palmer's Green
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why book with us
- One visit for most repairs
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- Colour-matched on site

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Common problems we fix in Palmer's Green
Hard water speeds up the wear, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether the price covers travel
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
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.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you need to take the bath out?

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The colour and finish to match
- What kind of damage it is
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are usually enough. Try to include:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
To get a price, send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away whether it can be repaired.
How it works
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and clear up. Plan for the best part of a day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and what to avoid for the first few days.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
