Bath re-enamelling in Castor without replacing anything
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths, and common reasons people get in touch are a coloured bath you want in white and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Castor
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, usually first under the taps and around the waste.
Most people get in touch when they notice one of these:
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

Castor questions
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it typically saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Do you work in Castor?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Castor. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We will tell you when the room can be used again.
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Is there a guarantee?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
There is no separate call-out charge. Your fixed price includes everything.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, we often do. It can add a little time, which we include in the quote.
Why repair rather than replace?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Re-enamelling takes one technician and usually one day, and the bath can be used the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- The size and number of damaged areas
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One picture of the whole bath
- Something in shot to show the size
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Details of any past repairs
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them over with your postcode, and you will get a fixed quote back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
What happens on the day
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take the best part of a day, tidy-up included.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- 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 generally be used the day after.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Ask for a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job without visiting.
