Bath Re-enamelling in Rayleigh
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing in Rayleigh, carried out at your home and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Stains that will not shift
Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Never use suction bath mats
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
About our bath re-enamelling in Rayleigh
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Whether it’s an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and several chips and rust patches, we can normally put it right, on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re covered after the visit.

Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a full day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.

- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The type of damage
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The material
- How much damage there is
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are normally enough. Try to include:
- Any details about the material
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Repair or replace in Rayleigh?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
