Bath re-enamelling in Barepot without replacing anything
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. We work on cast iron baths, Victorian roll-tops and acrylic baths, and common reasons people get in touch are brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

What else we do in Barepot
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Barepot
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Barepot?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is my repair covered?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
What happens next?
We come back with a fixed quote, generally with dates to choose from. You’re under no obligation.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Mention the colour you want when you send photos.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Yes, regularly. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Do you cover the whole of Cumbria?
The entire UK, including all of Cumbria. Just include your postcode and we’ll confirm dates.
Repairing versus replacing in Barepot
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, to stop limescale building up.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
How the visit works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a full day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
