Bath re-enamelling in Wimbish Green without replacing anything
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. Typical jobs include lots of chips and rust spots and wear marks under the taps, on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Wimbish Green and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What to look for in a quote
- How your room will be protected
- What preparation is included
- How to care for the finish
- Whether they match the colour on site
Keeping it looking good
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is 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 photos, as it can add time.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we look at:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How hard the colour is to match
- The type of damage
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
Before you send photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
Email us pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Wimbish Green, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
FAQs for Wimbish Green
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we have finished.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Wimbish Green as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Letting agents often send us photos 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.
How the visit works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. You can expect it to take a full day.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Let us know about parking or access
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Related advice
What a repair cannot fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
