The process
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price

Advice
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Astley
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Common call-outs are for wear marks under the taps and a roll-top that’s seen better days, on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll come back.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Work for landlords and builders
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Astley questions
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
What areas do you cover?
We work UK-wide, and that includes Astley. Prices don’t change with location.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we’re working.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed price.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Astley?
Older baths often have several problems at once: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
Common reasons people in Astley contact us include:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Thin, worn enamel in places

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

Looking after it afterwards
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Store bottles off the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
Dry the bath after use if possible, particularly with hard water, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
