Repairing versus replacing in Ashley Dale
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Why us?

About our bath re-enamelling in Ashley Dale
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We work on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.
All our work comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Shropshire.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.

Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Have chips seen to early
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, don’t use suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What affects the price in Ashley Dale
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- The type of damage
- How hard the colour is to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
Quotes from your pictures
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Any details about the material
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
For a price in Ashley Dale, pictures are the quickest way: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
Landlord and trade work in Ashley Dale
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Ashley Dale questions
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, most people go for white. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
Are there extra charges for Ashley Dale?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
When a repair isn’t the answer
To be straight with you, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- A bath split right through the body
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
What we work on
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Ashley Dale
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Look out for these signs:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Worn patches where water runs and sits

The process
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 normally takes the best part of a day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
