The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll get on with it. The job generally runs to a full day, including clearing up.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s normally ready the day after.
Before we arrive
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
How to get a price
Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.
Advice
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Cheveley
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. Whether it’s enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and wear marks under the taps, we can help, whatever the material.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
When to call us in Cheveley
In hard water areas, limescale and the cleaning it needs wear enamel faster, and gritty cleaners are the worst culprits.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A roll-top that is seen better days
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- What prep work is covered
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- How long it needs to cure
Can I fix it myself?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Keeping it looking good
Nothing complicated is needed, just a few sensible habits:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Store bottles off the bath
- Repair dripping taps early
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, don’t pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There’s no charge for travel to Cheveley. The price depends on:
- How many areas need work
- The material
- How easy the damage is to reach

Compared with replacing, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.

FAQs for Cheveley
What information do you need?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you work in Cheveley?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Cheveley from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Will the new finish last?
Care for it and it lasts. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
What happens next?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If we need another angle, we will ask.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Is there a call-out fee?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
