Bath re-enamelling in Wilburton without replacing anything
We do not move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Common call-outs are for brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and several chips and rust patches, across basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What else we do in Wilburton
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Send photos for a quote
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Wilburton
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Common questions in Wilburton
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we will plan for it.
Do you work in Wilburton?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Wilburton and the rest of Cambridgeshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include photos of each item.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Wilburton
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is typically perfectly sound.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Chips and rust in more than one place
Before booking anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- What prep work is covered
- Whether the price covers travel
- Whether a trained technician does the job
Repair or replace: which is better?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.

How the visit works
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take the best part of a day.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will say immediately whether it can be repaired.

What we can’t put right
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
