How we handle bath re-enamelling in Great Stonar
Resurfacing renews the whole surface of the bath without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the whole bath is tired rather than one spot. Our repair technicians work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most often call us about several chips and rust patches and a peeling or bubbling previous coating.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you’re not left on your own once we’ve gone.

Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic baths can be resurfaced too, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.

Should I try a DIY kit first?
A kit can be fine for a tiny mark out of sight. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it will not stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
Stick to mild, non-abrasive cleaners, do not use suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Moisture gets underneath and makes it worse, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
The process
There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. Most visits take most of the day, tidy-up included.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- We key the bath and apply a bonding primer.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
