Bath re-enamelling in Bainton, done in place
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 enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and chips and rust in more than one place, on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
Not sure? Send pictures and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

How it works
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take the best part of a day.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

Repairing versus replacing in Bainton

Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bainton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Never use suction bath mats
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
