Bath re-enamelling in Ugley Green without replacing anything
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Typical jobs include a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, across basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Essex.

What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What we’re called out for in Ugley Green
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Wear marks under the taps
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Staining under the taps and around the waste

Ugley Green questions
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
How long will the bath be out of use?
One day for most baths, ready the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.

That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.

What else we do in Ugley Green
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ugley Green. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
What you get with us
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- We leave the room as we found it
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
Read our full price list or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Getting a price from photos
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Details of any past repairs
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Any details about the material
Email us a picture of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you’re in Ugley Green, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Have chips seen to early
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
