Bath re-enamelling in Privett, done in place
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. Our repair technicians work on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Privett
Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Stains that won’t shift

What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you are not left guessing. On site, it takes the best part of a day. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.

Repair or replace: which is better?
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. We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Privett. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Store bottles off the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

FAQs for Privett
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you’ll get one combined price.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Will the bath be moved?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
