How we handle bath re-enamelling in Great Brampton
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It usually takes one visit, and can be used again the following day. We work on acrylic baths, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people contact us are staining under the taps and around the waste and lots of chips and rust spots.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Why repair rather than replace?
A new bath means a plumber, lifting out the old bath, re-tiling or making good the walls and days without a bathroom. Resurfacing gives the bath a new finish without moving it. Prices start from £350. Every job is a little different, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

What happens on the day
Your technician turns up when we said we would and checks the damage against your pictures first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before any work starts. The work itself takes the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.
- 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.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures.
Before we arrive
- Clear the area around the damage
- Let us know about parking or access
- Let us know which floor the room is on

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.

Questions from Great Brampton
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
Is there any odour?
A little, depending on the job. Open windows and an extractor fan help, and it soon fades.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Great Brampton?
Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.

Yes. We work across the UK and come to Great Brampton and the rest of Herefordshire. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Prices don’t change with location.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Many landlords are happy for a repair to be arranged.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Most baths are done in a day and can be used the day after. We give you timings with the quote.
What else we do in Great Brampton
Aftercare tips
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Have chips seen to early
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, so limescale can’t build up.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.
When a repair isn’t the answer
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
