Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
What happens on the day
Arrival times are agreed in advance, so you know when to expect us. On site, it takes a full day in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- 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.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Preparing for the visit

Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts:
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Store bottles off the bath
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. 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.
Common questions in Donaghadee
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Which areas do you work in?
Everywhere in the UK, Donaghadee included. Travel is included in the price.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths, ready the next day. We give you timings with the quote.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so mention it when you send photos.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Yes, while we’re applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Donaghadee?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before you book.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Should you replace it?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Our prices are the same across the UK, with no extra for Donaghadee. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
