Bath Re-enamelling for Dunlop homes
Bath re-enamelling across Dunlop and nearby, done in a single visit in most cases and guaranteed for a year.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A coloured bath you want in white
- Wear marks under the taps
When we’d advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- A bath that is rusted through
- A metal bath with a through crack
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
Bath re-enamelling in Dunlop without replacing anything
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We’re often asked to fix wear marks under the taps and a coating lifting around the plughole, across cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
You are covered after we leave: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we explain what it covers before booking.

Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will 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, it’s worth having it done properly.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Dunlop
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What happens on the day
It’s a tidy, low-fuss visit. We agree the arrival time in advance, protect the area, then carry out the work, which normally takes a full day. If we find something your pictures didn’t show, we will explain it before carrying on.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.
Before we arrive
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Ensure the area is dry
Ask for a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You’ll know the full cost before booking. We look at:
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The size and number of damaged areas
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
How to get a fixed quote
The better the photos, the more accurate the price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Details of any past repairs
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or ring us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
Repairing versus replacing in Dunlop
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: the amount of damage, the material, access to the area, and how many jobs we do in one trip. Send pictures and you’ll get a fixed figure.

Dunlop questions
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Just add the extra items to your photos and you will get one combined price.
Do the materials smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum.
Do you cover Dunlop?
We do. Technicians travel to Dunlop from across the region, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
Do you charge for travel?
Travel is included in the price, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Will the bath be moved?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.

Different materials, different repairs
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 the part we put right.
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Dunlop?
Enamel wears gradually. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, typically first under the taps and around the waste.
The most common problems we are called about are:
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A coloured bath you want in white
Before you book anyone
- Whether they match the colour on site
- Aftercare advice
- Whether the price covers travel
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
