Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Barby Nortoft, Warwickshire
Bath re-enamelling in and around Barby Nortoft: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Stains that won’t shift
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Never use suction bath mats
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Bath re-enamelling in Barby Nortoft without replacing anything
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Whether it’s an old resurfacing that’s failing and a coloured bath you want in white, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Barby Nortoft: your questions answered
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Usually a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Do you charge for travel?
We don’t add a call-out fee. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Do you cover the whole of Warwickshire?

Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders across Warwickshire.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Barby Nortoft?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- What the surface is made of
- How much damage there is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Quotes from your pictures
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- The material, if you know it
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your CV23 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What happens on the day
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which usually takes a full day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we will talk to you before going ahead.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
