How we handle bath re-enamelling in Butterwick
The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It generally takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. If you are dealing with a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and an original cast iron bath that needs restoring, we can help, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths alike.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Butterwick as everywhere else we work.

Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.

Butterwick: your questions answered
Is there a call-out fee?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can landlords book you?
Yes, frequently. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Will there be fumes?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
What happens once I’ve sent photos?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Generally, yes. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll take it from there.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
Just keep them out of the work area. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
What we are called out for in Butterwick

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Thin, worn enamel in places
Comparing quotes

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. What matters most is:
- How many items we do on one visit
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Butterwick. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- Details of any past repairs
For a price in Butterwick, pictures are the quickest way: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. You’ll get a fixed quote with dates to choose from.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. These habits help:
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
