Bath re-enamelling in Cattal without replacing anything
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It suits anyone happy with the bathroom apart from the bath. We’re frequently asked to fix stains that won’t shift and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, across pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we’ll sort it.

Honest limits
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber

Should I try a DIY kit first?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Aftercare tips
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and do not leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a bath can take several days across several trades. Re-enamelling is one technician, typically one day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.

Cattal questions
How quickly can you book me in?
That depends on our diary for your area. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you work in Cattal?
We do. Repair technicians travel to Cattal from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Typically, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
Is it messy?
Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Do the materials smell?
A little, depending on the job. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, though it’s best to check with your landlord first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
How it works
From the moment we arrive, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes most of the day, depending on what we find, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
How to get a price

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
- What kind of damage it is
- What the surface is made of
Compared with replacing, a repair is normally a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from pictures
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.

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