Repairs by material
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Wilstone
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. If you are dealing with enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and stains that won’t shift, we can normally put it right, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths alike.
We guarantee the work for a year. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

Should you replace it?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the next day. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, 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.

What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the day after.
Before we arrive
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price

Advice
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Wilstone
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can pets and children be at home?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
Which areas do you work in?
All of Hertfordshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
What affects the price in Wilstone
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Doing more than one item at once
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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 fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
Common problems we fix in Wilstone
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Stains that won’t shift
- Thin, worn enamel in places
What your quote should include
- What preparation is included
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
