Common questions in Burnside
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
Will the new finish last?
Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Do you cover Burnside?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Burnside. Send photos and we will quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
How long will the bath be out of use?

Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
About our bath re-enamelling in Burnside
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Whether it’s a roll-top that’s seen better days and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can help, whatever the material.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

Aftercare tips
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, including:
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.

- 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 day after.

Ask for a price
There is no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Burnside
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Thin, worn enamel in places
Questions to ask before booking
- What prep work is covered
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long it needs to cure
- Whether the price covers travel
Repair or replace in Burnside?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, often need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Landlords, agents and businesses in Burnside
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we’ll handle the rest.
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
