How we handle bath re-enamelling in Brinscall
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, and you can use the bath the day after. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. We’re frequently asked to fix chips and rust in more than one place and a coloured bath you want in white, across pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.
You are covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything isn’t right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Honest limits
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair

Why repair rather than replace?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, generally one day, with the bath back in use the following day. 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. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Repair dripping taps early
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a full day, including clearing up.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Open a window if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Getting a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Advice
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.

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’s the part we put right.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
