Bath re-enamelling in Foston without replacing anything
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It usually takes one visit, and can be used again the day after. We work on cast iron baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are lots of chips and rust spots and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
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.

How the visit works
There is not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take most of the day.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know about parking or access
- Have a window or extractor fan available
Getting a price
Pricing is simple: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them to us with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There is no charge for the quote and no obligation.

What we can’t put right
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair can’t fix:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Steel that has corroded right through
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Foston: your questions answered
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. We can do the inside and outside.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first, so mention it when you send pictures.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Are you a vetted contractor?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, so the repair isn’t disturbed while it cures.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Typically, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Foston?
Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is generally as strong as ever.
The most common problems we’re called about are:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Wear marks under the taps
- Several chips and rust patches
Questions to ask before booking
- How to look after the finish
- Who will actually do the work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
What affects the price in Foston
Resurfacing from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- The colour and finish to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
What it costs depends on the type and amount of damage, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Send pictures for a quote
We price nearly every job from pictures. This is what to send:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- What it’s made of, if you know
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us pictures through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can give you a fixed price.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is normally cheaper.
