Bath re-enamelling at your home in Elson
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we do not cut corners on it. Whether it’s thin, worn enamel in places and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can generally put it right, whatever the material.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months in Elson and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. We recommend:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Never use suction bath mats
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.

If you manage property in Elson, we will quote for several properties at once. Just send pictures for each address and we’ll price them together.

What your bath is made of matters
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.

What we do, step by step
Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- 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 next day.
Before we arrive
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

Related advice
Common problems we fix in Elson
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use wear the gloss away, starting where water runs and sits.
Look out for any of the following:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
What your quote should include
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- Whether the price covers travel
Should I try a DIY kit first?
If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before you book. We look at:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
- How hard the colour is to match
- How much damage there is
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the photos on your phone. Just make sure we can see:
- A picture taken from further back
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and you will get a fixed price back. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
