Bath re-enamelling for Haughton homes

Different materials, different repairs

Cast iron

Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so resurfacing gives them a new life.

Roll-top and period baths

We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Bath re-enamelling in Haughton without replacing anything

After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, so we don’t cut corners on it. Typical jobs include chips and rust in more than one place and a coating lifting around the plughole, across acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and cast iron baths.

Every repair comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Nottinghamshire.

Repairing versus replacing in Haughton

When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Compared with replacing, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. Your fixed quote shows exactly what’s included.

Why us?

  • No need to remove anything
  • Most jobs done in one visit
  • Technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
  • We leave the room as we found it

Read our full price list and guide to resurfacing and replacement costs.

What bath re-enamelling costs

Prices start from £350. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas
  • The colour and finish to match

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Quotes from your pictures

Most quotes are done from pictures alone. To make it quick:

  • What it’s made of, if you know
  • A wider photo showing the whole bath
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before

Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DN22 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.

What we can’t put right

We will not take on work that will not last, so these are the limits:

  • An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
  • Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
  • A bath that’s rusted through

Send us photos and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Materials we work on in Haughton

  • Acrylic baths
  • Basins & shower trays
  • Pressed steel baths
  • Victorian roll-tops
  • Cast iron baths

Aftercare tips

Once the work has cured, treat it gently:

  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs straight away
  • Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
  • Do not leave a chip unrepaired

Give the finish its full curing time before using the bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.

Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.

FAQs for Haughton

Do I need to be at home?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time we agree with you.

How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Haughton?

Prices start from £350. The exact price depends on the damage, so we quote from pictures. You will get a fixed figure before booking.

Do you work for landlords and businesses?

Yes. We carry out repairs for householders, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses across Nottinghamshire.

How long is the bath unusable?

Usually one day, with the bath ready the next day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.

When can you do it?

We will give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

In most cases. We remove the old repair before doing a new one, so let us know about it.

What happens if you find more damage?

We will show you and explain before doing anything extra. You will not be charged for anything you haven’t agreed.

I’m a tenant. Can you help?

Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.

DIY repairs versus a professional job

It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and then the old filler has to be removed first.

If you are set on a kit, follow its instructions closely and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

When to call us in Haughton

The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:

  • An outdated colour you’d like to change
  • A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
  • Several chips and rust patches
  • Worn patches where water runs and sits

Questions to ask before booking

  • Aftercare advice
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
  • Who will actually do the work
