- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Bigby
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. Our repair technicians work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths, and the jobs we see most are wear marks under the taps and a peeling or bubbling previous coating.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Bigby and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How much damage there is
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone photos are fine. Make sure they show:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- One picture of the whole bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
Upload pictures of the damage and one of the entire item, and tell us you’re in Bigby, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Landlord and trade work in Bigby
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Should you replace it?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the whole room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing usually wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Bigby. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Straight answers about what a repair can do
- Dust sheets down, tidy finish
- No need to remove anything
See our prices page or guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.
Honest limits
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
