How we handle bath re-enamelling in Collingtree
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and people most often call us about an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Repair dripping taps early
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Collingtree questions
Do you cover the whole of Northamptonshire?
All of Northamptonshire, and the rest of the UK. There’s no extra charge for travel.
How do I book?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair is not disturbed while it cures.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that is in the quote.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No, it stays where it is. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.

What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
What we are called out for in Collingtree
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Clients generally contact us about:
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
What your quote should include
- How your room will be protected
- Aftercare advice
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
When a repair isn’t the answer
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair won’t do:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- Steel that has corroded right through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
Can I fix it myself?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.

Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
