Bath re-enamelling at your home in Arnold
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Common call-outs are for an outdated colour you’d like to change and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, across basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Arnold
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Arnold?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can you repair something that’s been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we’ll plan for it.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You don’t need to watch us work.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the pictures show. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
When a repair is not the answer
It helps to know what we cannot do too:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What we do, step by step
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, then carry out the work, which typically takes the best part of a day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- 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.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can

Landlord and trade work in Arnold
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Nottingham and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Should you replace it?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

What affects the price in Arnold
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Arnold. The price reflects:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The type of damage
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Arnold. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Something in shot to show the size
- A picture taken from further back
- Any details about the material
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Store bottles off the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Never use suction bath mats
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
