How we handle bath re-enamelling in Heathton
Re-enamelling works especially well on cast iron and steel, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. Common call-outs are for wear marks under the taps and chips and rust in more than one place, in Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and cast iron baths.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY kit or professional repair?
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, then guarantee it for a year.
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. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send photos.

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Heathton
Older baths often have several problems at once: dull areas, chips, rust and staining. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
Look out for these signs:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- Stains that will not shift
What your quote should include
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether there are any call-out or travel charges
- How long the guarantee is and what it covers
- What aftercare is recommended
What we cannot put right
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs will not solve:
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- A metal bath with a through crack
Not sure? Send pictures and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
What affects the price in Heathton
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Heathton. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- What kind of damage it is
- How hard the colour is to match
- How easy the damage is to reach
Every job is a little different, so we price each one individually. The size and type of damage, the material and access all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
Getting a price from pictures
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- Natural light rather than flash
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the whole bath
- Something in shot to show the size
The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of pictures through our quote form or call us. We’ll say right away if a repair is the right fix.
How it works
Here’s how a visit generally runs: we arrive on time, protect everything around the work area, carry out the work and clear up. Plan for a full day. Before we go, we will explain when it can be used and how to look after it.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- Old sealant is cut out and the bath is deep cleaned.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Before we arrive
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access

For landlords and businesses
We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Staffordshire and across the UK. A repair avoids taking out and refitting, which is easier on the people living there.
Builders use us to fix snagging damage before handover. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.
Should you replace it?
When the bathroom is fine apart from the bath’s finish, re-enamelling is the least disruptive fix. Nothing else is disturbed. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

Do the materials smell?
