Bath re-enamelling in Gubblecote without replacing anything
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. You end up with a smooth, glossy surface. We’re frequently asked to fix an outdated colour you’d like to change and stains that won’t shift, across pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What we do, step by step
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can stay at home while we are there. We protect the area first, then the work takes the best part of a day. At the end we talk you through how soon it can be used and how to care for it.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Clear the area around the damage
- Point us to the nearest place to park

Questions from Gubblecote
It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?
In most cases. The old repair comes out first, so let us know about it.
Are there extra charges for Gubblecote?
No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Can tenants book a repair?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send photos.
Do I need to be at home?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You do not need to watch us work.

Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Gubblecote. Send us photos for a fixed quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children, mainly so nothing gets touched before it has cured.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed price. These are the things that affect it:
- How hard the colour is to match
- Access to the area
- How much damage there is
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, repairing normally costs far less, because nothing has to be taken out, refitted or made good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.
How to get a fixed price
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
When to call us in Gubblecote
Sometimes it’s an earlier resurfacing that has failed, peeling around the waste or bubbling. We strip what’s failing and start again.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Wear marks under the taps
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
Comparing quotes
- Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
- What prep work is covered
- How long it needs to cure
- How changes to the job are handled
What a repair can’t fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we’ll tell you before we start. We cannot fix:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.
Materials we repair
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Cast iron baths
- Basins & shower trays
Keeping it looking good
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Have chips seen to early
- Repair dripping taps early
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Never use suction bath mats
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Can I fix it myself?
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is normally the cheaper route.
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, and the work is guaranteed.
Different materials, different repairs
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so the metal is treated and sealed before the repair.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
