About our bath re-enamelling in Waldringfield Heath
We re-enamel plenty of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. If you’re dealing with an old resurfacing that’s failing and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can normally put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths alike.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll come back.

How to care for the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Waldringfield Heath questions
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, and that includes Waldringfield Heath. Our prices are the same everywhere.
How quickly can you book me in?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Is there a call-out fee?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
When to call us in Waldringfield Heath
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. Failing coatings are stripped back before we resurface.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Wear marks under the taps
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Several chips and rust patches
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
Questions to ask before booking
- How the colour is matched
- How changes to the job are handled
- How soon you can use it again
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
