Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in The Green, Essex
Full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing at your home in The Green, with a one-year guarantee on every repair.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Several chips and rust patches
- Wear marks under the taps
DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Bath re-enamelling in The Green without replacing anything
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It typically takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. Whether it’s staining under the taps and around the waste and several chips and rust patches, we can help, whatever the material.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

What we do, step by step
Once we are through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the job takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
Before we arrive
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to The Green. The price comes down to:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Whether we combine several jobs
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Send photos for a quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Details of any past repairs
- The material, if you know it
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Repair or replace in The Green?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

The Green questions
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What information do you need?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, access to the room.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
