Bath Re-enamelling for Water Stratford homes
Fixed-price bath re-enamelling in Water Stratford and the surrounding area, done in a single visit in most cases.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Water Stratford
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Common call-outs are for brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and an old resurfacing that’s failing, on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
All our work is covered by a one-year guarantee.

Work for landlords and builders
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Water Stratford: your questions answered
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
What happens next?
We review the photos and send a fixed quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just make sure the landlord agrees.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. 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.

Many baths we resurface have simply been well used. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is generally as strong as ever.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes most of the day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s much quicker too. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What affects the price in Water Stratford
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Water Stratford. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Natural light rather than flash
For a price in Water Stratford, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Repair dripping taps early
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
