How we handle bath re-enamelling in Great Cransley
If your bath is sound but looks tired, re-enamelling is typically the most cost-effective option. There’s no removal, plumbing or tiling involved. Typical jobs include a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and brown or grey marks that don’t clean off, across basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What we do, step by step
A typical visit goes like this: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and tidy away. Plan for a full day from start to finish. Before leaving, we tell you how long to leave it and how to look after it.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear the area around the damage
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work

What else we do in Great Cransley
Great Cransley: your questions answered
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
Do I need to be at home?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time we agree with you.
Is it OK to have pets in the house?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
When can you do it?
That depends on our diary for your area. Send photos with your postcode and we’ll reply with the earliest dates.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It fades as the coating cures.
Can you quote from pictures?
Yes, almost always. Clear pictures let us give you a fixed price without visiting.
What do you need from me?
Use the quote form or ring 0345 017 0787, and we’ll do the rest.
For landlords and businesses
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Great Cransley as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Great Cransley?
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
You may need us if you’ve spotted:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Enamel that is lost its shine and feels rough
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping

Honest limits
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Holes rusted through the metal

DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Should you replace it?
Replacing a cast iron bath is a big job: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Re-enamelling avoids all of it. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.
Why Great Cransley clients choose us

Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Aftercare tips
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Do not use the bath until it has fully cured
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Repair dripping taps early
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
