Bath re-enamelling in Queens Park without replacing anything
We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It typically takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Typical jobs include stains that won’t shift and a coating lifting around the plughole, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
How to look after the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Have chips seen to early
- Repair dripping taps early
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Queens Park
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
Customers generally contact us about:
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Worn patches where water runs and sits

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Queens Park. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- What it’s made of, if you know
- One picture of the whole bath
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re 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 fails, we can still put it right.
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
Should you replace it?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing

When we’d advise against a repair
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before you book.
What we work on
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Queens Park
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send pictures.
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Usually, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Do you work in Queens Park?
We do. Technicians travel to Queens Park from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
