Bath Re-enamelling for Wilford homes
Our repair technicians come to Wilford for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Everything is done in place, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Lots of chips and rust spots
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best:
- Have chips seen to early
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
About our bath re-enamelling in Wilford
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We are often asked to fix a bath in a colour that no longer suits and wear marks under the taps, on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

Repairing versus replacing in Wilford
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. 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.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which typically takes a full day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can

Wilford questions
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Generally, yes. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
How long does re-enamelling last?
Look after it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Landlord and trade work in Wilford
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Wilford. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How many areas need work
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Quotes from your photos
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- One picture of the entire bath
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the whole bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
