About our bath re-enamelling in Well End
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Common call-outs are for a bath in a colour that no longer suits and worn patches where water runs and sits, in Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Repair or replace: which is better?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the entire room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed quote from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

Well End questions
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Mention the colour you want when you send pictures.
What do you need from me?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Do you charge for travel?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Do you cover the entire of Buckinghamshire?
Everywhere in the UK, Well End included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Do you come to Well End?
We do. We send a technician to Well End for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Well End use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it normally costs far less than a refit.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Buckinghamshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Well End?
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
Common reasons people in Well End contact us include:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- Several chips and rust patches
What to look for in a quote
- How the colour is matched
- If travel is included in the price
- When it can be used again
- What happens if they find more damage
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Have chips seen to early
- Respect the curing time we give you
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
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.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
When we would advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A bath that’s rusted through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
