Aftercare tips
So the finish stays in good condition for years:
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Repair dripping taps early
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and keep bottles and razors off the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.

Typical jobs include lots of chips and rust spots and a dull, rough surface that won’t come clean, across pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Great Whittington?

The most common problems we are called about are:
- Thin, worn enamel in places

- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean

What happens on the day

- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- We key the surface and put on a bonding primer.
- We spray several coats of new enamel finish.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Let us know if it has been repaired before

Repair or replace in Great Whittington?
If the bath is sound, re-enamelling is typically much cheaper than replacing it, when you count removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating. It’s also far quicker. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Our prices are the same across the UK, so there is no premium for Great Whittington. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Why book with us
- Nothing taken out or refitted
- Every repair guaranteed for a year
- Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- CHAS and Constructionline accredited
See our pricing or resurfacing vs replacement cost guide.
Can I fix it myself?
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- Unusual colours or finishes
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
