Bath re-enamelling in Caton Green without replacing anything

The bath stays where it is, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It usually takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. We regularly repair basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are a roll-top that’s seen better days and thin, worn enamel in places.

The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something is not right in that time, we come back and put it right.

How it works

It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, cover and mask the work area, and get on with the job, which normally takes the best part of a day. If anything looks different from your pictures, we’ll talk to you before going ahead.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the day after.

How to prepare

  • Make sure the area is dry
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access

What we’re called out for in Caton Green

In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and abrasive cleaners do the most damage.

Look out for these signs:

  • Worn patches where water runs and sits
  • A bath in a colour that no longer suits
  • A peeling or bubbling previous coating
  • Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off

Choosing a repair company

Can I fix it myself?

If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

How to look after the repair

Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:

  • Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired
  • Never use suction bath mats
  • Dry the bath after use to stop limescale

Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

Landlord and trade work in Caton Green

Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, so there’s no need to replace a damaged item at the last minute. We can visit several plots in one trip.

We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will arrange it.

When a repair is not the answer

A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:

  • A bath split right through the body
  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back

Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
