Bath re-enamelling in The Street without replacing anything
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. We work on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are an old resurfacing that’s failing and several chips and rust patches.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Common questions in The Street
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
How do I book?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in The Street?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as everything cures.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote with dates.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
When we’d advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including The Street. The price reflects:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- The material, if you know it
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the whole bath
For a price in The Street, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which generally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your photos, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you’re under no obligation.
