- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Several chips and rust patches
DIY repairs versus a professional job
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface isn’t prepared the repair will not last.
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, a professional repair is worth it.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hanwood Bank
We don’t move the bath, so the taps, tiles and plumbing aren’t touched. It generally takes one visit, with the bath ready to use the following day. Whether it’s brown or grey marks that don’t clean off and chips and rust in more than one place, we can help, on Victorian roll-tops, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths alike.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

When we would advise against a repair
Some problems need a builder, plumber or fitter rather than us:
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.

Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
- Get any chip repaired quickly
Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It removes more of the surface.

Roll-top and period baths

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.
