About our bath re-enamelling in Bulwell
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. If you are dealing with a coloured bath you want in white and several chips and rust patches, we can generally put it right, on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths alike.
Every job is backed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
Questions from Bulwell
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we will ask for another angle.
When can you do it?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged before the end of a tenancy.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
How long is the bath unusable?
One day for most baths and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Bulwell?
Resurfacing from £350. Every job gets a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- What kind of damage it is
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Natural light rather than flash
- Something in shot to show the size
For most jobs, pictures are all we need to give you a price. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
What happens on the day
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a full day. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to care for it.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not right for every job, for example:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

- Wear marks under the taps
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
