How we handle bath re-enamelling in Acton Scott
We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It usually takes one visit, and can be used again the day after. We work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are worn patches where water runs and sits and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring.
You are covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What happens on the day
We turn up when we said we would and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes a full day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Resurfacing takes one technician and normally a day, with the bath back in use the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- How many areas need work
- The material and finish
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are generally enough. Try to include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- The material, if you know it
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Most clients in Acton Scott get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.

FAQs for Acton Scott
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

Can I fix it myself?
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 does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
When a repair is not the answer
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
