Bath re-enamelling at your home in Appleby
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. Most baths are done in one visit, and can be used again the next day. Whether it’s several chips and rust patches and wear marks under the taps, we can usually put it right.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

FAQs for Appleby
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work that clears as it cures.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
Is repairing better than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
What happens on the day
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow the best part of a day, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
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.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
What a repair can’t fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Steel that has corroded right through
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Common problems we fix in Appleby
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is usually as strong as ever.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Stains that won’t shift
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
Before you book anyone
- How your room will be protected
- What aftercare is recommended
- When it can be used again
- A fixed quote, and whether VAT is included
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
