Bath re-enamelling in Dolton, done in place
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths, and people most often call us about wear marks under the taps and several chips and rust patches.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Honest limits
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits too:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Never use suction bath mats
- Have chips seen to early
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, because they can mark the finish. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Dolton
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
When to call us in Dolton
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
What your quote should include
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How the room is protected while they work
- Who turns up on the day
The process
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. Once we are there, the work takes most of the day. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can usually be used the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Open a window if you can
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- How much damage there is
- What the surface is made of
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it.
How to get a fixed price
You can take the photos on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Most clients in Dolton get their price from photos. Add a line about what happened and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote and the earliest dates we have.
Should you replace it?
A replacement frequently means several trades over several days. Re-enamelling is one technician, normally one day, and the bath is usable the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Photos let us give you the exact figure.
What you get with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- We come to you, anywhere in the UK
- CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited
- Colour mixed on the day to match

Dolton questions
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
Yes, regularly. Removing the old work can add time, and that’s in the quote.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
How quickly can you book me in?
We will give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we’ll do what we can.
Do you charge for travel?
No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.
Do you work in Dolton?
Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Dolton. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Is there a smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
