Bath re-enamelling at your home in Elston
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Typical jobs include lots of chips and rust spots and an outdated colour you’d like to change, across basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and pressed steel baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months in Elston and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Landlord and trade work in Elston
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes the best part of a day in most cases. The room is left tidy and ready to use once it has cured.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Make sure the area is dry
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
How to get a price

Advice
Why repair rather than replace?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
What you get with us
- We’ll tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- One visit for most repairs
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Work done at your home or business

What affects the price in Elston
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Elston. The price depends on:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The type of damage
- The colour and finish to match
- Access to the area
We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Elston. The job itself decides the price: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
Quotes from your pictures
Good pictures mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- What it’s made of, if you know
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
Pricing is simple: take a close-up of the damage and a photo from further back, send them over with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you’re under no obligation.
What we cannot put right
A repair is not always the answer, and we’d rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Steel that has corroded right through
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Elston
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and rust spots spread under the surface. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Can I fix it myself?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most frequently are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. 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.
Common questions in Elston
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
Is there a guarantee?
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?
Usually one day, with the bath ready the next day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.

Repairs by material
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.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
