About our bath re-enamelling in Barthomley
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. Common call-outs are for a coloured bath you want in white and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, on basins & shower trays, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Barthomley and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

What else we do in Barthomley
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Barthomley?
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
Before booking anyone
- What prep work is covered
- Who turns up on the day
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What protection goes down before work starts
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Honest limits
We would rather lose a job than do one that will not last, so these are the limits:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Holes rusted through the metal
- A bath split right through the body
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair

Repairing versus replacing in Barthomley
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Common questions in Barthomley
Will the bath be moved?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room masked and ventilated.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Typically, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How long will the bath be out of use?
One day for most baths, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Let us know what was used before and we’ll plan for it.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Just ensure the landlord agrees.
When can you do it?
We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
