- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure until the day after.

Bath re-enamelling in Great Longstone, done in place
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Common call-outs are for a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and an old resurfacing that’s failing, across Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and acrylic baths.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Getting it right first time is typically cheaper.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Great Longstone. The price reflects:
- What kind of damage it is
- The colour and finish to match
- How many areas need work
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. The quote lists exactly what you’re paying for.
How to get a fixed quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- Any details about the material
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- One picture of the entire bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
To get a price, send a couple of pictures using our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Common questions in Great Longstone
Can you do more than one item on the same visit?
Of course, and it usually saves money. Send pictures of everything together and we’ll quote them together.
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Great Longstone?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You’ll get a fixed figure before booking.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
How durable is a resurfaced bath?
A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Avoid abrasive cleaners and suction mats.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Can you price it without visiting?
Nearly always. If photos don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Does someone need to be in?
Yes. The technician needs access to the room for the visit, at a time that suits you.
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 before the end of a tenancy.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Great Longstone
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Derbyshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
We work for landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Great Longstone as well as homeowners. A repair between tenants keeps the property empty for less time, and it costs much less than replacing.
What we can’t put right
Some jobs aren’t right for a repair, for example:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Great Longstone
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Repair dripping taps early
- Respect the curing time we give you
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, because they can mark the finish. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.

- Stains that won’t shift
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
