How we handle bath re-enamelling in Birsemore
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Common call-outs are for a coloured bath you want in white and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Birsemore: your questions answered
How long is the bath unusable?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Do you work in Birsemore?
We do. We send a technician to Birsemore for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Will the new finish last?
Care for it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. Anything extra is discussed before we begin.
What happens after I send pictures?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee. We will explain what it covers when we quote.
How the visit works
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it will not stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.

We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.

What a repair can’t fix
We would rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A bath split right through the body
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Repair or replace: which is better?
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
