Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Never use suction bath mats
- 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.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Tockenham
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the next day. If you are dealing with enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an outdated colour you’d like to change, we can normally put it right.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
When a repair is not the answer
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Holes rusted through the metal
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
What your bath is made of matters
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
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
How the visit works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, and get on with the job, which typically takes the best part of a day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Repair or replace: which is better?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Why us?
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Tockenham questions
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses in Tockenham.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Will the new finish last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Will there be a smell?
There can be some smell while we work, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Usually one day, with the bath ready the next day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed quote
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
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 quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
