Bath Re-enamelling for Bratch homes
We travel to Bratch for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, with a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Wear marks under the taps
- A roll-top that is seen better days
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
About our bath re-enamelling in Bratch
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We regularly repair acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and people most often call us about thin, worn enamel in places and several chips and rust patches.
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Staffordshire.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How easy the damage is to reach
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How hard the colour is to match
A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Quotes from your pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
When we’d advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Holes rusted through the metal
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
Should you replace it?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and usually a day, with the bath back in use the next day. Prices start from £350. We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Bratch. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.

Common questions in Bratch
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
What happens next?
We check the damage, the material and your postcode, then reply with a quote and the next dates we have.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit usually costs less than separate visits. Send pictures of everything you’d like done.
Can you price it without visiting?
Usually, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
How it works
Expect a friendly, tidy visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a full day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the next day.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Ask for a price
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 the same day in most cases.
Advice
For landlords and businesses
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
Letting agents frequently send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
How to look after the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
