Bath re-enamelling at your home in Dilhorne
Resurfacing renews the entire surface of the bath without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Common call-outs are for lots of chips and rust spots and a coating lifting around the plughole, across Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
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, it’s worth having it done properly.
When we would advise against a repair
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. We cannot fix:
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Dilhorne
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A coloured bath you want in white
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
Before booking anyone
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How changes to the job are handled
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
Aftercare tips
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. These habits help:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send photos and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Questions from Dilhorne
What happens after I send pictures?
We review the pictures and send a fixed quote and the next dates we have.
What happens if you find more damage?
If we find something the pictures didn’t show, we explain it first. The price only changes if you agree.
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. We give a fixed quote based on photos of the damage. Send a close-up and a photo of the entire item and your postcode.
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Is there any odour?
Expect a mild smell while we are working that clears as it cures.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
Can you repair several things at once?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
What affects the price in Dilhorne
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- The material
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
Phone photos are fine, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.
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.
The process
Once we are through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the job takes a full day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
