About our bath re-enamelling in Bonsall
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Common call-outs are for an outdated colour you’d like to change and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What else we do in Bonsall
Repair or replace: which is better?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s much quicker too. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send photos and you will get a fixed figure.

The process
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job typically takes the best part of a day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

FAQs for Bonsall
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Is my repair covered?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. We’ll explain what it covers when we quote.
Can you quote from photos?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
We can work for tenants, landlords or agents. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Derbyshire.
Do you work in Bonsall?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Bonsall and the rest of Derbyshire. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
For landlords and businesses
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Derbyshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Bonsall
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
Before booking anyone
- How changes to the job are handled
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether a trained technician does the job
DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before you book. We look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How hard the colour is to match
- Doing more than one item at once
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what we need:
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
To get a price, send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We will tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
When we’d advise against a repair
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so here’s what a repair cannot put right:
- A bath that is rusted through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A metal bath with a through crack
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Store bottles off the bath
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
