Bath re-enamelling in Birkby, done in place
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, but without the cost and upheaval of a refit. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths, and people most often call us about enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an old resurfacing that’s failing.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so you know exactly what we’re doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. Allow the best part of a day, and we’ll tell you if anything changes.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s the part we put right.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
When to call us in Birkby
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Worn patches where water runs and sits

What we can’t put right
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Steel that has corroded right through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Looking after it afterwards
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Store bottles off the bath
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
