Bath Re-enamelling for Wadenhoe homes

- Resurfacing from £350

When to call us in Wadenhoe
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
Questions to ask before booking
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- What aftercare is recommended

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a full day. We leave the room clean.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.
How to prepare
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Point us to the nearest place to park

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.
Send pictures for a quote
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the whole item, with your PE8 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Honest limits
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot

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.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
Work for landlords and builders
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
