About our bath re-enamelling in The Rookery
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Whether it’s brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and several chips and rust patches, we can help.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Common questions in The Rookery
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
How the visit works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether we combine several jobs
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is typically a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- One picture of the whole bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, photos are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in The Rookery?
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Stains that will not shift
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Store bottles off the bath
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.

Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
When a repair is not the answer
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- A bath split right through the body
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in The Rookery
