What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Waddingham
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most often call us about a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
What a repair can’t fix
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, including:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A bath split right through the body
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The type of damage
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before you book.
Quotes from your photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Where you are, by postcode
If you’re in Waddingham and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly. Protection goes down first, then the work takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Advice
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Waddingham use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
