About our bath re-enamelling in Elston
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. Common call-outs are for an original cast iron bath that needs restoring and an outdated colour you’d like to change, on Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.
Peace of mind is built in: each job carries a one-year guarantee, and we explain what it covers before booking.

The process
On the day itself, there’s little for you to do. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take the best part of a day.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- Next we degrease the bath and fix chips and rust spots.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Make sure the area is dry
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day

When to call us in Elston
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Staining under the taps and around the waste

What affects the price in Elston
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- The material
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
How to get a fixed quote
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A photo taken from further back
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- One sharp close-up of the damage
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the surface is easy:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Have chips seen to early
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Elston questions
Do you work in Elston?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Elston for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Can you price it without visiting?
In nearly every case. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.

Can landlords book you?

Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
How do I book?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
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.
When we would advise against a repair
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Holes rusted through the metal
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Materials we repair

What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. The bath needs to be firm and well supported.
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.

Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
