Common questions in Boythorpe
Will the bath be moved?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
How quickly can you book me in?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Are you accredited?
We are accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Do you cover the entire of Derbyshire?
Across the UK. Prices do not change with location.
Is it messy?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Bath re-enamelling in Boythorpe without replacing anything
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. Whether it’s chips and rust in more than one place and staining under the taps and around the waste, we can typically put it right, on basins & shower trays, acrylic baths and cast iron baths alike.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

The process
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes the best part of a day. We leave the room clean.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the following day.
How to prepare
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them to us. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.

Repairing versus replacing in Boythorpe
Replacing a bath typically involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Boythorpe?
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Look out for these signs:
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Chips and rust in more than one place

- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. You will see the full price before booking, with no extras added later.
Quotes from your photos
Two or three clear pictures are generally enough. Try to include:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Any details about the material
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job without visiting.
