How we handle bath re-enamelling in Billington
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Common call-outs are for a coloured bath you want in white and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, across Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Billington and across Staffordshire.

Questions from Billington
Do you hold any accreditations?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos cannot show what we need.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
What happens after I send pictures?
You will get a fixed quote back. There is no obligation to book.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we have agreed what we’re doing. Most jobs take the best part of a day, and you can get on with other things while we are there.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
How to get a price
Upload a photo of the damage and one of the whole item, with your ST18 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Related advice
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

What we cannot put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Staffordshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.

What affects the price in Billington
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Billington. The price comes down to:
- The material and finish
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
We charge the same wherever you are, so there is no premium for Billington. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
How to get a fixed price
We price nearly every job from photos. This is what to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Most clients in Billington get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Never use suction bath mats
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
Repairing versus replacing in Billington
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 much quicker too. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking.

What your bath is made of matters
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, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
