Bath re-enamelling in Grange without replacing anything
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. Common call-outs are for a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and lots of chips and rust spots, across acrylic baths, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Grange?
Enamel does not fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths dull the surface, starting where water runs and sits.
You may need us if you’ve spotted any of these:
- Wear marks under the taps
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A coloured bath you want in white
What to look for in a quote
- When it can be used again
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
Why repair rather than replace?
Replacing the bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and several days without a working bathroom. Re-enamelling gives the bath a new finish with the bath left where it is. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

What we do, step by step
We turn up at the time we agreed with you, introduces themselves and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. The work itself takes a full day, and the room is left clean and tidy.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Preparing for the visit
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Ensure the area is dry
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
How to get a price

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. Only the enamel surface wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Honest limits
We won’t take on work that won’t last, so these are the limits:
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- A bath that’s rusted through
- A metal bath with a through crack
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
DIY kit or professional repair?
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 then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
What affects the price in Grange
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- How easy the damage is to reach
- The colour and finish to match
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- What kind of damage it is
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
Getting a price from photos
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage. Please include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A photo taken from further back
- Something in shot to show the size
For a price in Grange, the easiest route is photos: a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.

Common questions in Grange
Is repairing better than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We’ll tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Yes. Combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down. Include pictures of each item.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is there a smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Will the bath be moved?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
What information do you need?
Just pictures, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
What areas do you cover?
Everywhere in the UK, Grange included. There’s no extra charge for travel.
Landlord and trade work in Grange
Hospitality businesses cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We’ll fit around changeovers where we can.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
