Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Yaxley questions
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths, ready the day after. We’ll confirm timings when we quote.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Yaxley?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Is my repair covered?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
When a repair is not the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Holes rusted through the metal
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and start once you’re happy with the plan. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you are welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the next day.
How to prepare
- Open a window if you can
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Yaxley is one of 371 places in Cambridgeshire where we work. Our jobs stretch from Yaxley to Birmingham (69 miles away).
All of PE7 is covered, from the main roads to the quietest streets. We regularly work on streets such as Main Street, London Road and Morgan Close and the roads around them. We also travel to Farcet (2 miles north-east), Norman Cross (2 miles south-west), Orton (3 miles north-west), Orton Longueville (3 miles north-west) and Stanground (3 miles north-east).

Open spaces near Yaxley include Orton Mere and Hampton Nature Reserve.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
Repair or replace in Yaxley?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Most jobs done in one visit
- We leave the room as we found it
- No need to remove anything

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Work for landlords and builders
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Yaxley use us as well as homeowners. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it costs much less than replacing.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
What we’re called out for in Yaxley
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
What your quote should include
- How your room will be protected
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- If travel is included in the price
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
