Bath re-enamelling at your home in Granton
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We regularly repair acrylic baths, pressed steel baths and basins & shower trays, and the jobs we see most are a coating lifting around the plughole and stains that won’t shift.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard.

DIY kit or professional repair?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, a professional repair is worth it.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so have it stripped and resurfaced.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so we keep visits short and tidy. We can work around your bookings.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Granton

- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
- Thin, worn enamel in places

What else we do in Granton
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
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.

Repair or replace: which is better?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the day after. Prices start from £350. The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. The full price is agreed before booking.
Why us?
- Normally one visit, start to finish
- Colours mixed by hand to suit your surface
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- One price list for the entire UK
Read our prices page or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Then the area is sheeted and masked and we start. Allow a full day.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- 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 until the day after.
Preparing for the visit
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Point us to the nearest place to park
- Clear the area around the damage
Ask for a price
We price from photos so you do not have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
