Bath re-enamelling in Anacrehill without replacing anything
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. We are often asked to fix enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and several chips and rust patches, across basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Anacrehill as everywhere else we work.

How to look after the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. Expect it to take the best part of a day. We clean up when we’re done and let you know when you can use it again.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access

Advice
Repairing versus replacing in Anacrehill
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

When a repair isn’t the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Anacrehill questions
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the whole UK, including Anacrehill and the rest of Derbyshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we will offer you dates.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
What information do you need?
Some photos, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Anacrehill?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your DE6 postcode.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You’ll know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Doing more than one item at once
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.
Getting a price from photos
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Any details about the material
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
