Bath re-enamelling at your home in Derbyshire

We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Common call-outs are for stains that won’t shift and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.

Visits start with a quick look at the job together. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. You can expect it to take most of the day, and we will tell you if anything changes.

We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.

What you’ll pay

Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing typically costs far less, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

What’s near Chesterfield

Our clients here include homes close to Parkside Community School, St Mary's Catholic Primary and Holy Trinity Church and the streets around them. Nearby too are Chesterfield St Helena School (within half a mile east) and Chesterfield Arms (less than half a mile north-east). The closest station to Chesterfield is Chesterfield station, about 0.7 miles east. A little further out are Walton Hospital (1.3 miles south) and Municipal Borough of Chesterfield (0.9 miles south-east).

Can I fix it myself?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Roll-top and period baths

Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Cast iron

A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.

How we price bath re-enamelling

Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:

The material
How hard the colour is to match
The size and number of damaged areas
Access to the area

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 play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Send photos for a quote

Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:

The postcode, so we can plan the visit
A picture taken from further back
What it’s made of, if you know
Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection

If you’re in Derbyshire and want a price, photos are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You will get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.

What a repair can’t fix

We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:

Steel that has corroded right through
Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off

How the damage happens

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

Look out for these signs:

A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
Lots of chips and rust spots
An outdated colour you’d like to change
Worn patches where water runs and sits

Derbyshire: your questions answered

Do you resurface freestanding baths?

Yes. We can do the inside and outside.

Will it make a mess?

Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Do you hold any accreditations?

We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

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.

How durable is a resurfaced bath?

It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.

Which areas do you work in?

All of Derbyshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.

Is repairing better than replacing?

Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
