About our bath re-enamelling in Giltbrook
A re-enamelled bath looks and feels like a new one, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Common call-outs are for an old resurfacing that’s failing and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, in acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

When to call us in Giltbrook
Enamel wears gradually. Abrasive cleaners, limescale and years of use dull the surface, usually first under the taps and around the waste.
Typical reasons for a call-out include:
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- Stains that will not shift

Honest limits
A repair isn’t always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs will not solve:
- A bath that is rusted through
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
Landlord and trade work in Giltbrook
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so we keep visits short and tidy. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Looking after it afterwards
Nothing complicated is needed:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
The first few days matter most: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Giltbrook
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. The rest of the house is unaffected.
When can you do it?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We will offer you dates when we send your quote.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
How long does re-enamelling last?
It depends on preparation, use and care. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and it’s guaranteed for a year.
Are there extra charges for Giltbrook?
We do not add a call-out fee. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How long is the bath unusable?
Usually one day, with the bath ready the next day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Is there a smell?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
What we do, step by step
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we are there, the work takes most of the day. We leave the room clean.
- 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
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
How to get a price
A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Different materials, different repairs
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
