Bath re-enamelling at your home in Thornhaugh
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. We regularly repair acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and common reasons people contact us are several chips and rust patches and an outdated colour you’d like to change.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What else we do in Thornhaugh
Landlords, agents and businesses in Thornhaugh
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Thornhaugh. The price comes down to:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- The material
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the entire bath
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Repair or replace in Thornhaugh?
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- One price list for the whole UK
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- One visit for most repairs

How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take most of the day.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
Most clients in Thornhaugh get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Advice
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
Honest limits
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
