About our bath re-enamelling in Edlaston
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is generally the most cost-effective option. It avoids removal, plumbing and re-tiling. Typical jobs include a coating lifting around the plughole and worn patches where water runs and sits, across Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee in Edlaston and across Derbyshire.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many items we do on one visit
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
The price reflects the work involved, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before you book.
Quotes from your pictures
Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To help us price it:
- Details of any past repairs
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- One picture of the entire bath
- Something in shot to show the size
A quote takes minutes to ask for: photograph the damage, then the entire bath, include your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.
Work for landlords and builders
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip.
Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We are CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
If a previous coating is starting to peel, do not pick at it. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
Edlaston: your questions answered
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are often glad to have it sorted.
Can landlords book you?
We do, regularly. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Will the price change on the day?
It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
What do you need from me?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, access to the room.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Doing several items on one visit typically costs less than separate visits. Include pictures of each item.
What happens next?
You get a fixed price and available dates. If anything’s unclear, we will ask for another photo.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Is a repair better than a new one?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we will tell you.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
When a repair is not the answer
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A bath that is rusted through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Pressed steel baths
