Common problems we fix in Cropwell Bishop
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, generally first under the taps and around the waste.
Look out for any of the following:
- Wear marks under the taps
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Cropwell Bishop
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. Our technicians work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about a roll-top that’s seen better days and a bath in a colour that no longer suits.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take most of the day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- Several coats of new finish are sprayed on.
- Once cured, normally by the next day, the bath is ready.
How to prepare
- Make sure the area is dry
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Make sure the room can be ventilated

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Repair dripping taps early
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Repair or replace in Cropwell Bishop?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the next day. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Cropwell Bishop
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Will there be a smell?
There may be a mild smell during the work.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Send photos of everything you’d like done.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
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.
