How we handle bath re-enamelling in East Carlton
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. We regularly repair pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are stains that won’t shift and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What else we do in East Carlton
What affects the price in East Carlton
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material and finish
- How many areas need work
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How many items we do on one visit
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
Getting a price from pictures
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- One picture of the entire bath
- Where you are, by postcode
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
You don’t need a survey visit. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
How the visit works
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It normally takes a full day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s typically ready the following day.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Open a window if you can
Getting a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Repairs by material
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we pay close attention there.
Repairing versus replacing in East Carlton
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, making good the walls and tiles and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Prices start from £350. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

East Carlton: your questions answered
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Does the bath have to be removed?
Not at all. We work on the bath in place, with the room protected and ventilated.
Will there be a smell?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in East Carlton?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You know the full cost before anything is booked.
How long does re-enamelling last?
Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will you leave a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and we clean up when we have finished.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
