Bath re-enamelling in Wainhouse Corner, done in place
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It generally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Our repair technicians work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are stains that won’t shift and worn patches where water runs and sits.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there’s a problem and we will come back.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
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.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Advice
What affects the price in Wainhouse Corner
Prices start from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Wainhouse Corner. The price reflects:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- How many items we do on one visit
- How much damage there is
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures

- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Should I try a DIY kit first?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
What a repair can’t fix
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
