Bath re-enamelling in Portvoller without replacing anything
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Typical jobs include a coloured bath you want in white and an old resurfacing that’s failing, across cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

The process
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes most of the day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Portvoller questions
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will there be fumes?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your HS2 postcode.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Landlord and trade work in Portvoller
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send pictures, the address and how to get access.
What we can’t put right
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Holes rusted through the metal
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Why book with us
- Free fixed quotes from pictures
- One visit for most repairs
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

DIY kit or professional repair?
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 will not last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material
- The type of damage
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Natural light rather than flash
- The material, if you know it
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
