Bath re-enamelling in Shortfield Common, done in place
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Whether it’s a bath in a colour that no longer suits and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, we can help, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops alike.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What else we do in Shortfield Common
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- The type of damage
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed price
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A photo taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Shortfield Common
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is usually perfectly sound.
The things clients generally mention when they call include:
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An outdated colour you’d like to change

Repairs by material
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
For landlords and businesses
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.

How it works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a full day, tidy-up included.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the area is dry
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
