Bath re-enamelling at your home in Waterloo
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. Whether it’s a bath in a colour that no longer suits and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can generally put it right.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Repairing versus replacing in Waterloo
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the entire surface without moving it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

What we’re called out for in Waterloo
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, generally first under the taps and around the waste.
Customers normally contact us about:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

How to look after the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The type of damage
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether we combine several jobs
Compared with replacing, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Quotes from your pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- A bath split right through the body
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we work on in Waterloo

Waterloo questions
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Typically, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Ensure the area is dry
- Let us know which floor the room is on
