Bath re-enamelling at your home in Bankwood Gate
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Bankwood Gate and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

DIY kit or professional repair?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- What the surface is made of
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Doing more than one item at once
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
How to get a fixed quote
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Just make sure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. You will get a fixed quote, not an estimate.
Bankwood Gate questions
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Do you cover Bankwood Gate?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Bankwood Gate and the rest of Derbyshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
Is there a call-out fee?
We do not add a call-out fee. Your fixed price includes everything.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Repair or replace in Bankwood Gate?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Bankwood Gate. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Work for landlords and builders
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Derbyshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

Advice
When to call us in Bankwood Gate
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Wear marks under the taps
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
Before booking anyone
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How soon you can use it again
- How changes to the job are handled
- How the colour is matched
