Different materials, different repairs
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Craigton
We don’t move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. It typically takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Whether it’s an old resurfacing that’s failing and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, we can help, on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths alike.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you’re not left on your own once we have gone.

Questions from Craigton
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
We’re happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Do the materials smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied. It fades as everything cures.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
How long does re-enamelling last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
What if the damage is worse than the photos show?
If we find something the photos didn’t show, we explain it first. You decide whether to go ahead.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

Should you replace it?
There are times replacing is better: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you are refitting the entire room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing typically wins. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You’ll see the full price before you book, with no extras added later.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Store bottles off the bath
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What we do, step by step
Here’s how a visit usually runs: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, carry out the work and tidy away. Allow a full day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s usually ready the following day.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
Getting a price is easy: take a close-up of the damage and a picture from further back, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and you are under no obligation.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is usually cheaper.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- The material
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all play a part, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Try to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Any details about the material
- One sharp close-up of the damage
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. You’ll get a fixed price, not an estimate.
What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- A bath that is rusted through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
