About our bath re-enamelling in Ashley
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is generally the most cost-effective option. There is no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and the jobs we see most are a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and lots of chips and rust spots.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

What else we do in Ashley
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Ashley?
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- Aftercare advice
- How the colour is matched
- How changes to the job are handled
How the visit works
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take the best part of a day.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Prices start from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Why us?
- A year’s guarantee on all work
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- One price list for the whole UK
- Everything repaired in place

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- Access to the area
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether we combine several jobs
No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
How to get a fixed price
You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Details of any past repairs
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Most clients in Ashley get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
Ashley questions
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Can tenants book a repair?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Will you leave a mess?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed price. You’re under no obligation.
Will there be a smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you cover Ashley?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Ashley for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Aftercare tips
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we cannot put right
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
