How the visit works
We begin by going over the job with you, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and we start. It normally takes the best part of a day, and we will keep you posted as we go.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the day after.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

About our bath re-enamelling in Butlocks Heath
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Typical jobs include worn patches where water runs and sits and a coloured bath you want in white, in cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Landlord and trade work in Butlocks Heath
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, pictures and access details and we’ll arrange it.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 often lifts.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Repair dripping taps early
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What kind of damage it is
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Butlocks Heath. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
How to get a fixed quote
When you take your photos, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- What it’s made of, if you know
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Butlocks Heath?
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A coating lifting around the plughole
