Bath Re-enamelling for Dunham on Trent homes

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Dunham on Trent
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you’re dealing with stains that won’t shift and wear marks under the taps, we can help, on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths alike.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Common questions in Dunham on Trent
What happens after I send pictures?
We look at the pictures and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can you repair several things at once?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Just add the extra items to your pictures and we will quote them together.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
Do you cover the whole of Nottinghamshire?
Across the UK. Our prices are the same everywhere.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
What do you need from me?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Nottinghamshire.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Repairing versus replacing in Dunham on Trent
There are times replacing is better: a cracked-through bath, a change of size or shape, or a full refit. In most other cases, resurfacing is the better choice. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Compared with replacing, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths

Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Repair dripping taps early
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no 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.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We take into account:
- Doing more than one item at once
- Access to the area
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair generally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Natural light rather than flash
- One picture of the entire bath
- Any details about the material
You do not need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
What we are called out for in Dunham on Trent
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
Questions to ask before you book
- How soon you can use it again
- The length of the guarantee and what it covers
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How your room will be protected
