Contact us if you’ve noticed:
- Several chips and rust patches
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough

About our bath re-enamelling in Gorstage
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Typical jobs include stains that won’t shift and an outdated colour you’d like to change, across Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

DIY kit or professional repair?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Never use suction bath mats
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
The first few days matter most: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
What affects the price in Gorstage
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The material and finish
- How much damage there is
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book.
How to get a fixed price
The better the pictures, the more accurate the price. Here’s what helps:
- A picture taken from further back
- Natural light rather than flash
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- Something in shot to show the size
Upload pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, and tell us you are in Gorstage, and we will reply with a fixed quote.
Repairs by material
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
What happens on the day
We begin by going over the job with you. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. You can expect it to take the best part of a day.
- The room is masked, protected and ventilated.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the following day.
How to prepare
- Make sure the room can be ventilated
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. You can have a price before you arrange access, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

Should you replace it?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is generally much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. Set against the cost of replacement, repairing usually costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good.
