About our bath re-enamelling in Clay Coton
If your bath is sound but looks tired, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. If you’re dealing with an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and worn patches where water runs and sits, we can typically put it right, on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths alike.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

Can I fix it myself?
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
How it works
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We confirm the time with you beforehand, protect the area, and get on with the job, which normally takes a full day. If we find something your photos didn’t show, we’ll explain it before carrying on.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

What information do you need?

Can you price it without visiting?
Normally, yes. A close-up and a wider photo are enough to give a fixed quote.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Can landlords book you?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as householders in Clay Coton.

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes, we do this regularly. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.

How to look after the repair
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Repair dripping taps early
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Repairing versus replacing in Clay Coton
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported for the finish to last.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
