- Resurfacing from £350
- An old resurfacing that is failing

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
We understand the appeal of fixing it 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.
About our bath re-enamelling in Tokers Green
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. If you’re dealing with a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can typically put it right.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Please include:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Pricing is simple: 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 price. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Keeping it looking good
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- A bath split right through the body
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Questions from Tokers Green
How long does re-enamelling take?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Are there extra charges for Tokers Green?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you cover the whole of Reading?
All of Reading, and the rest of the UK. There is no extra charge for travel.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Do you work in Tokers Green?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Tokers Green and the rest of Reading. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
What you get with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted

How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- 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
- Clear the area around the damage
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
Getting a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
