How we handle bath re-enamelling in Dragonby
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we do not cut corners on it. Our technicians work on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about several chips and rust patches and a peeling or bubbling previous coating.
You’re covered after we leave: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before you book.

DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Have chips seen to early
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
Questions from Dragonby
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Open windows and an extractor fan help.
Do you need to take the bath out?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room masked and ventilated.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes, white is the usual choice. Tell us what you’d like when you ask for a quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course, and it generally saves money. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we’ll quote them together.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Dragonby?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item with your DN15 postcode.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside if you’d like.
Common problems we fix in Dragonby
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
If you can see any of these, send us a photo:
- Wear marks under the taps
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
What your quote should include
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- When it can be used again
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
Should you replace it?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and several days without a working bathroom. Resurfacing renews the whole surface with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.

Advice
Honest limits
Not everything can be repaired, and we’d rather say so up front. We can’t fix:
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair

Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
