Bath re-enamelling at your home in Doxey
When a bath is structurally fine but worn out on the surface, resurfacing is normally the best value. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. We regularly repair Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and cast iron baths, and people most often call us about a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and stains that won’t shift.
Big or small, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Doxey and across Staffordshire.

FAQs for Doxey
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If pictures don’t show enough, we will ask for another angle.
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Which areas do you work in?
Across the UK, so Doxey is covered. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it normally saves money. Send pictures of everything together and you’ll get one combined price.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Do you work in Doxey?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Doxey and the rest of Staffordshire. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Doxey
If you manage property in Doxey, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send photos for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
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.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Repairing versus replacing in Doxey
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so there are no surprises on the day.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
What we cannot put right
Before booking, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Not sure? Send photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
