About our bath re-enamelling in Calverton
Most baths are re-enamelled in a day, with the bath ready to use the following day. Taps, tiles, panels and plumbing all stay in place. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean and lots of chips and rust spots.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northamptonshire.

The process
The work is clean and fairly quiet, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain how soon it can be used and how to look after it.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- The bath is left to cure and can typically be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

Advice
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Calverton?
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Stains that will not shift
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Questions to ask before you book
- What aftercare is recommended
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Store bottles off the bath
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, particularly where water is hard, so limescale can’t build up.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

Repairs by material
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
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
