Bath re-enamelling in Temple End, done in place
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. If you are dealing with stains that won’t shift and chips and rust in more than one place, we can help, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Common problems we fix in Temple End
Previous coatings can fail too, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
Questions to ask before booking

- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the price covers travel
The process
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. Most visits take most of the day.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Advice
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Never use suction bath mats
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Temple End. The price comes down to:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Something in shot to show the size
For a price in Temple End, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A bath that is rusted through
- A bath split right through the body
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
Should you replace it?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Why book with us
- Everything repaired in place
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
