Bath re-enamelling in Gracemount without replacing anything
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Doing them in place keeps an original feature. If you are dealing with a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and several chips and rust patches, we can help.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

How the visit works
On the day, we arrive at the time we’ve agreed, cover the area with dust sheets and masking, and set to work. Expect it to take most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we’ll come back with a fixed figure.
Advice
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. This is what makes a difference:
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- The colour and finish to match
- How many items we do on one visit
- How many areas need work
It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.
Getting a price from photos
Most quotes are done from photos alone. To help us price it:
- A photo taken from further back
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any details about the material
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
When we’d advise against a repair
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
Gracemount: your questions answered
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. Replacement brings removal, refitting and making good, which a repair avoids. We will be honest if it’s not worth it.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Generally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. Deeply pitted baths may need a second day.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes, for a year. If there is a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Do you cover Gracemount?
Yes. We cover the entire UK and come to Gracemount. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes, and it’s often cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.
Do you charge for travel?
There’s no separate call-out charge. Your fixed quote includes everything.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
Normally, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Gracemount
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing things at every changeover adds up. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
Letting agents frequently send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Common problems we fix in Gracemount
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. At that stage, resurfacing is the fix.
The things clients usually mention when they call include:
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
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 generally cheaper.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
