Bath re-enamelling in Baslow, done in place
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Whether it’s an outdated colour you’d like to change and wear marks under the taps, we can help, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays alike.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. Just call us if there’s a problem and we’ll sort it.

Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
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 typically cheaper.
What happens on the day
From the moment we arrive, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes most of the day, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- 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.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Before we arrive
- Open a window if you can
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Point us to the nearest place to park
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. There is no charge for travel to Baslow. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many areas need work
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One sharp close-up of the damage
Email us a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, and tell us you are in Baslow, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What we’re called out for in Baslow
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
Before you book anyone
- How the room is protected while they work
- What aftercare is recommended
- When it can be used again
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Baslow
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.
