How we handle bath re-enamelling in Danestone
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Typical jobs include an outdated colour you’d like to change and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, in Victorian roll-tops, cast iron baths and acrylic baths.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

Repair or replace: which is better?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: they’re heavy, frequently need breaking up, and a new one is not cheap. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

Danestone questions
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Nearly always. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Danestone?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
Can tenants book a repair?
We are happy to deal with the tenant, landlord or agent. Get your landlord’s agreement first.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before.
What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is usually the cheaper route.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.

Landlord and trade work in Danestone
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
How to care for the repair
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
How the visit works
We turn up at the time we agreed with you and checks the damage against your pictures first. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before we open a single tin. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Danestone?
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
Common reasons people in Danestone contact us are:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A roll-top that’s seen better days

When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair is not always the answer, and we’ll tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
