Bath re-enamelling in East Carlton, done in place
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Our technicians work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and Victorian roll-tops, and people most frequently call us about wear marks under the taps and a roll-top that’s seen better days.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
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.
What a repair can’t fix
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
Materials and what they mean for the repair
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.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.

When to call us in East Carlton
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
- Brown or grey marks that don’t clean off
What your quote should include

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in East Carlton
What does bath re-enamelling cost?
Resurfacing from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from photos. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
Is my repair covered?
Yes, for a year. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
How long does re-enamelling take?
Most baths are done in a day, ready the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Will the new finish last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. Properly prepared and looked after, it lasts well, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
Can you change the colour of my bath?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We work for landlords, agents, builders and businesses as well as homeowners across Northamptonshire.
What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, sheet and mask the area around the job, do the job and tidy away. Plan for most of the day. Before leaving, we tell you when it can be used and what to avoid for the first few days.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know which floor the room is on
Ask for a price
Send us photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your LE16 postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed price.

Why repair rather than replace?
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. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access.
