About our bath re-enamelling in Twyford
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. Common call-outs are for an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Questions from Twyford
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Twyford?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
What areas do you cover?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
How the visit works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a full day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Landlord and trade work in Twyford
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Leicestershire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
What we’re called out for in Twyford
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Wear marks under the taps
- A coloured bath you want in white
What to look for in a quote
- How long it needs to cure
- How to look after the finish
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether the price covers travel
Looking after it afterwards
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material
- The type of damage
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
