How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The colour and finish to match
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
You can generally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To help us price it:
- One picture of the entire bath
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Send us a picture of the damage and one of the entire item, with your DE65 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
About our bath re-enamelling in Burntheath
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. If you are dealing with thin, worn enamel in places and stains that won’t shift, we can usually put it right, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths alike.
You’re covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.

What we do, step by step
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will take it from there. Most visits take the best part of a day, tidy-up included.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure the area is dry
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Related advice
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Repair dripping taps early
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Burntheath
Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Re-enamelling deals with all of them in one go.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- Several chips and rust patches
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A coating lifting around the plughole

What we can’t put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A bath that is rusted through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we work on
- Basins & shower trays

- Victorian roll-tops
Can I fix it myself?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, 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 natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Burntheath
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Burntheath use us as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it usually costs far less than a refit.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit.
Burntheath: your questions answered
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Keep pets and children away from the work area on the day, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Generally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Burntheath and the rest of Derbyshire. Send your postcode with your photos and we will confirm dates.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures can’t show what we need.
