Bath re-enamelling in Ward Green Cross without replacing anything
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. We work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and people most frequently call us about several chips and rust patches and a coloured bath you want in white.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Ward Green Cross
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

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 pay close attention there.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Repair or replace: which is better?

Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Ward Green Cross. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Ward Green Cross questions
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Will it make a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
What happens next?
You’ll get a fixed quote back, plus dates. You’re under no obligation.
What happens on the day
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive at the agreed slot, protect everything around the work area, do the job and tidy away. Plan for most of the day from start to finish. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- 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.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Never use suction bath mats
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Repair dripping taps early
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Ward Green Cross. The price reflects:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Any details about the material
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A picture taken from further back
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price without visiting.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
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 photos, as it can add time.
