Materials and what they mean for the repair
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 is what we repair.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
About our bath re-enamelling in Snaresbrook
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Common call-outs are for a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, across cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Snaresbrook
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- What the surface is made of
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- What kind of damage it is
A few things move the price: 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
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.

Snaresbrook questions
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Snaresbrook included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do you come to Snaresbrook?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Snaresbrook and the rest of Greater London. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Snaresbrook. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Advice
What we are called out for in Snaresbrook
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is usually perfectly sound.
Look out for these signs:
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
What to look for in a quote
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Aftercare advice
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Who will actually do the work
How to look after the repair
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Repair dripping taps early
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
