About our bath re-enamelling in Bordesley
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Common call-outs are for staining under the taps and around the waste and an outdated colour you’d like to change, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.

Questions from Bordesley
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed quote, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It clears as the finish cures.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes, frequently. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It clears as the materials cure.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You won’t be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, frequently. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.

When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- A bath split right through the body
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
DIY kit or professional repair?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
Common problems we fix in Bordesley
Often the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is normally perfectly sound.
Look out for these signs:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Stains that won’t shift
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- Thin, worn enamel in places
Questions to ask before you book
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What protection goes down before work starts
- Who turns up on the day
- What prep work is covered
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. We price every job individually, from your photos. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send photos for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- A photo taken from further back
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
How to care for the repair
Aftercare is simple:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Never use suction bath mats
- Store bottles off the bath
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the entire surface with the bath left where it is. Prices start from £350. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Why book with us
- No need to remove anything
- Usually one visit, start to finish
- Colour mixed on the day to match
- We leave the room as we found it
