What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

FAQs for Stone Common
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can you quote from photos?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the whole item and your postcode.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Have chips seen to early
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
How the visit works
Arrival times are agreed in advance. Once we’re there, the work takes the best part of a day. We leave the room clean and you will know when it can be used.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Ensure the area is dry
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children

Landlord and trade work in Stone Common
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Stone Common as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.

What else we do in Stone Common
Repair or replace in Stone Common?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface without moving it. Prices start from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
What you get with us
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

DIY kit or professional repair?
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, and the work is guaranteed.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
