Bath re-enamelling in Evenwood Gate, done in place
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. If you are dealing with several chips and rust patches and an old resurfacing that’s failing, we can generally put it right, on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.

Related advice
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Whether we combine several jobs
- How easy the damage is to reach
- What the surface is made of
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is generally a fraction of the price, because there is no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from pictures
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any details about the material
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Common questions in Evenwood Gate
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Evenwood Gate?
Prices start from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
What happens after I send pictures?
We come back with a fixed price, typically with dates to choose from. There’s no obligation to book.
What happens if you find more damage?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can landlords book you?

Is it OK to have pets in the house?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. The rest of the house is unaffected.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Do you work in Evenwood Gate?
Yes. We work across the UK and come to Evenwood Gate. Send us pictures for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly work with letting and managing agents. Send the address, photos and access details and we will handle the rest.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We will fit around changeovers where we can.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
Repairing versus replacing in Evenwood Gate
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Prices start from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so you know the cost before you book.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
Keeping it looking good
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Store bottles off the bath
- Respect the curing time we give you
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
