Bath re-enamelling at your home in Dalton
We do not move the bath, so your taps, tiles and plumbing are left alone. Most baths are done in one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. If you are dealing with an outdated colour you’d like to change and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, we can help.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If something isn’t right in that time, we come back and put it right.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.

Why repair rather than replace?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one isn’t cheap. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.
Why us?
- Rooms protected and left tidy
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Most jobs done in one visit
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
See our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Honest limits
We’d rather lose a job than do one that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Materials we work on in Dalton
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
Looking after it afterwards
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Have chips seen to early
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
What happens on the day
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we’re there. We protect the area first, then the work takes most of the day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Ask for 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.

Common problems we fix in Dalton
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That is the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Common reasons people in Dalton contact us are:
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
Questions to ask before you book
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How to care for the finish
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
FAQs for Dalton
Will the new finish last?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Usually, yes. We remove the old repair before doing a new one.
Is the work guaranteed?
All our work carries a one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Dalton?
Prices start from £350. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo and your postcode.
How long is the bath unusable?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Are there extra charges for Dalton?
Travel is included in the price, with the same prices everywhere we work.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We do not charge extra for travel to Dalton. The price comes down to:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Unusual colours or finishes
- The type of damage
- How easy the damage is to reach
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before you book, with no extras added later.
Send pictures for a quote
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
There is no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
