About our bath re-enamelling in Belthorn
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Whether it’s thin, worn enamel in places and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can help, on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Belthorn as everywhere else we work.

Questions from Belthorn
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
We ask you to keep children and pets out of the room while we work. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

When a repair is not the answer
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Belthorn
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
Keeping it looking good
Looking after the surface is easy:
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Repair dripping taps early
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How many areas need work
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Belthorn, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Belthorn?
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
