Bath re-enamelling in Ainsworth without replacing anything
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Typical jobs include enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and wear marks under the taps, on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Should you replace it?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

How it works
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know which floor the room is on

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Store bottles off the bath
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Ainsworth. The price depends on:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The size and number of damaged areas
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed price
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Something in shot to show the size
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Landlord and trade work in Ainsworth
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
FAQs for Ainsworth
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Can pets and children be at home?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can you quote from pictures?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover Ainsworth?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Ainsworth from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there any odour?
There can be some smell while we work. It fades as everything cures.
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.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
