Bath resurfacing or replacement?
It’s actually easier to re enamel the bath on-site, where the bath is than to replace it. This is called doing the bath in situ
Replacing the bath can end up costing more due to having to pay for a plumber, maybe destroying the surrounding tiles of the bath and having to get that fixed. Also, acrylic (plastic) baths are not as strong as cast iron or steel baths but it’s still a good idea to re-enamel them as they can become dull and damaged too.
It’s also contributing to a greener environment by repairing the bath you have instead of buying a completely new bath. Cast iron baths at present cost anywhere between £500-£5000. As a result, its a good idea to re enamel the bath! They are becoming more valuable these days
How much does bath resurfacing cost?
To do the bath resurfacing job properly to a good result it costs anywhere between £400-£700 pounds:
See our prices page.
The costs will depend on where the bath is to figure out travel costs and what type of bath repair is needed. Some baths, if they have been worked on before, may be flaking or cracking or peeling. This is the enamel surface coming away.
We would have to remove that worn and flaking enamel before we put our new enamel surface on.

How long does bath resurfacing and bath re-enameling in take?
Bath resurfacing is done at your home and it usually takes 4-6 hours to complete the full bath repair and bath re-enamelling procedure.
When can I use the bath after it has been resurfaced?
You can use the bath after 24 hours from completion of the job by our technician.
Has the bath been worked on before?
If the bath has been worked on before and the bath was re-enamelled previously then it may show up that the bath is flaking, cracking, peeling away from the original bath enamel. In this case we have to undo the work of the previous job before we can actually respray the bath.
If the old surface is damaged cracking or peeling away we have to get rid of that coating before we do our coating or it may continue to peel.
In this case we remove the old enamel surface and sand it back too to make it smooth again then we start our full bath re-enamelling and bath resurfacing procedure.
How long will the bath last after the bath resurfacing is done?
The bath should last years, sometimes up to 10 years or more depending on the use of it. We have done baths years later to bring it fully back to life again so it’s smooth and shiny but sometimes the baths last less than that.
A bath like anything will wear and tear over time. You can’t expect it to look perfect after 5 or 10 years.
With the use of modern spray cleaners and bleaches they dull the bath over time too.
Is the bathroom protected while the bath resurfacing is happening ?
Yes we cover the floor with dust sheets so it’s protected. We mask all around the bath so there is no over-spray.
We have an extractor that blows out any dust and enamel spray that is in the bathroom. We clean up as best we can after the job but it can get a bit dusty and it’s hard to catch everything working in a small space.
You may have to dust over the surface and run the bath and rinse it down before using it.
What type of materials do we use for the job?
We have tested and tried all the different enamel products and materials out there and we have found the best ones for the bath resurfacing job.
They are not the cheapest materials on the market but they are the best and that’s why we use them. The enamel we use is long lasting and durable. It has a deep shine to it.
Does bath resurfacing come with a warranty?
Yes – please review our warranty page for full details of what the warranty covers.
Bath resurfacing and re-enamelling full step-by-step procedure :
- We dust sheet the whole bathroom and cover all surfaces.
- We clean the bath with certain spray cleaners for your bath and remove any old and mouldy sealant.
- We then repair any damage to the bath, if there are any chips, scratches, limescale damage, holes, worn away enamel, etc. we repair that. This can involve sanding of the bath too so it’s smooth again
- Then we use certain chemicals on the bath to prepare it for adhesion. We use certain solvents that get rid of any grease, etc.
- We then put on our FIRST bonding agent/adhesive
- Then we spray on our SECOND bonding agent/etching primer. This is what makes us different from other resurfacing companies in that we use two bonding methods
- We then spray on the bath enamel with 3-4 coats of white enamel. This is a spray gun finish. We have a full spray gun set up which is for domestic use
- We let the bath set and dry to a point and then we do any finishing touches, polishing, etc. if needed
Bath Re-Enamelling and Resurfacing in Islington
Restoring Elegance, Comfort, and Durability to Your Bathroom
Your bath is one of the most frequently used fixtures in your home, and its condition has a direct impact on comfort, hygiene, and property value. Over time, everyday use, strong cleaning products, and the hardness of London water can lead to chips, scratches, staining, or a dull, worn finish. For homeowners in Islington and across North London, replacing an entire bath can be costly and disruptive. The smarter choice is bath re-enamelling and bath resurfacing in Islington—a professional restoration service that transforms tired baths into like-new condition without the expense of replacement.
Why Bath Re-Enamelling is Important in Islington
Islington is a diverse borough, known for its Georgian and Victorian townhouses, Edwardian flats, and modern apartment developments.

Re-enamelling and resurfacing techniques restore a gleaming surface, extend the lifespan of your bath, and preserve the charm of older properties while meeting modern standards of comfort and cleanliness.
