Bath re-enamelling in Coundon Grange, done in place
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. We regularly repair cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people get in touch are an outdated colour you’d like to change and several chips and rust patches.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Coundon Grange and everywhere else. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Coundon Grange
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Can you quote from photos?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What happens once I’ve sent pictures?
You get a fixed quote and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed price covers the visit and the work.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we’ll agree a date.
Repair or replace in Coundon Grange?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Re-enamelling renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts 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.
Why us?
- Same prices wherever you are
- Fixed prices from your pictures
- One visit for most repairs
- Work done at your home or business

Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Steel that has corroded right through
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, make sure the area is clean and completely dry, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
When to call us in Coundon Grange
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Worn patches where water runs and sits

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 job takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
Ask for a price
To get a price, send two or three pictures through our quote form or ring us. We will say right away if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
What affects the price in Coundon Grange
Resurfacing from £350. Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we look at:
- How much damage there is
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Whether we combine several jobs
Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
Quotes from your pictures
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- One picture of the entire bath
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

How to care for the repair
It’s all simple stuff:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Have chips seen to early
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse off any bath products.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
