How we handle bath re-enamelling in Great Melton
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Our repair technicians work on Victorian roll-tops, acrylic baths and pressed steel baths, and common reasons people get in touch are staining under the taps and around the waste and chips and rust in more than one place.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Great Melton
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.
Can pets and children be at home?
Yes, as long as they stay out of the room we are working in. We’ll tell you when the room can be used again.
Do you hold any accreditations?
We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.
How do I book?
Photos of the damage, a photo of the entire bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
How long is the bath unusable?
Normally a day, then it’s ready to use the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Does re-enamelling smell?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Do you do work for letting agents?
We do, regularly. We can quote for several properties together and work between tenancies.
Do you cover Great Melton?
Yes, we do. Technicians travel to Great Melton from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.
Landlords, agents and businesses in Great Melton
Rental properties take more wear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. Repairing between tenants keeps the property presentable for less.
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, putting right damage done during fitting so nothing needs replacing. We hold CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accreditations.
Can I fix it myself?
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.
Should you replace it?
A replacement often means several trades over several days. Resurfacing takes one technician and typically a day, and the bath is usable the day after. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Never use suction bath mats
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and rust spots spread under the surface. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
When we would advise against a repair
In fairness, there are a few things a repair won’t fix:
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
- A cast iron or steel bath that is cracked right through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
If in doubt, send pictures and we’ll say what we think before booking.
Surfaces we repair
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Great Melton?
Often the bath has just had decades of use, with nothing wrong except the surface. The body of the bath is usually perfectly sound.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Lots of chips and rust spots
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
Comparing quotes
- What prep work is covered
- How the room is protected while they work
- When it can be used again
- Whether the colour is mixed to match
How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We don’t charge extra for travel to Great Melton. The price depends on:
- What the surface is made of
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- Whether we combine several jobs
- The type of damage
There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Send pictures for a quote
When you take your photos, a few simple things make all the difference:
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Natural light rather than flash
- Any details about the material
- A photo taken from further back
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly whether it can be repaired.
