Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in High Heath, Shropshire
Bath re-enamelling in and around High Heath: photo quotes, tidy work and a year’s guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
Bath re-enamelling in High Heath without replacing anything
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. The finish is sprayed on in several coats over a bonding primer, once the bath has been cleaned, repaired and prepared. Common call-outs are for an old resurfacing that’s failing and a roll-top that’s seen better days, on acrylic baths, Victorian roll-tops and pressed steel baths.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Repairing versus replacing in High Heath
For a sound bath, resurfacing costs far less than replacement, once you add removal, plumbing, tiling and decorating to the price of a new bath. It’s also far quicker. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, so we price each one individually. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all play a part, and combining jobs on one visit brings the cost down.

How we price bath re-enamelling
Prices start from £350. We give every job a fixed price from pictures. These are the things that affect it:
- The material
- The colour and finish to match
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
Instead of hourly rates, we fix the price before we start. It depends on the damage, the material and access.

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- Where you are, by postcode
- What it’s made of, if you know

Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.
What we’re called out for in High Heath

Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Several chips and rust patches
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

Your questions about bath re-enamelling in High Heath
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you resurface freestanding baths?
Yes. Inside and out if you’d like.

There can be some smell while we work. It clears as the materials cure.

Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. You decide whether to go ahead.
Can you quote from pictures?
In nearly every case. If pictures don’t show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
