Bath re-enamelling in Bakewell, done in place
We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Typical jobs include worn patches where water runs and sits and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, across acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays.
All our work comes with a one-year guarantee.

What else we do in Bakewell
Common questions in Bakewell
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and you will get one combined price.
Do you come to Bakewell?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and travel to Bakewell and the rest of Derbyshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do the materials smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we leave the room clean.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There’s no area surcharge for Bakewell. The price reflects:
- The material
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone photos are fine, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole bath
- Natural light rather than flash
Email us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DE45 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.
Landlord and trade work in Bakewell
If you manage property in Bakewell, we can repair and quote for several addresses together. Just send photos for each address and we will price them together.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there is no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you’re not left guessing. On site, it takes the best part of a day in most cases. The room is left tidy and you will know when it can be used.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job.
Related advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new bath means a plumber, removing a heavy bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Bakewell. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- We leave the room as we found it
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor

DIY repairs versus a professional job
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
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: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Holes rusted through the metal
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
