Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Stains that won’t shift
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Hilston
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. Typical jobs include a roll-top that’s seen better days and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it, on acrylic baths, cast iron baths and basins & shower trays.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What else we do in Hilston
How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. After that, protection goes down around the work area and the work begins. It normally takes the best part of a day.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Let us know which floor the room is on
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Plan for the room to be out of bounds to pets and children
Getting a price
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or ring us. We’ll say straight away if a repair is the right fix.
Advice
What affects the price in Hilston
Prices start from £350. You won’t pay by the hour. The price is based on:
- The colour and finish to match
- How much damage there is
- Access to the area
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
There are no surprise extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
Quotes from your photos
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what we need:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Something in shot to show the size
- The material, if you know it
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With one close-up and one wider picture, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Repairs by material
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
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.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Have chips seen to early
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs immediately
Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. From then on, avoid abrasives and suction mats.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
FAQs for Hilston
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Hilston?
Resurfacing from £350. Because every job differs, we price from photos. You’ll get a fixed figure before you book.
Does re-enamelling smell?
There is some smell while the coating is applied, which is why we ventilate the bathroom. It fades as the coating cures.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
What happens next?
We look at the photos and reply with a fixed quote and some dates. If we need another angle, we’ll ask.
Will the new finish last?
Look after it and it lasts. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
In most cases. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Tell us about it when you ask for a quote.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
Landlord and trade work in Hilston
We also carry out snagging repairs for builders and developers, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.
For anyone letting property in or around Hilston, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we will come back with a combined price.
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it won’t stop us repairing it. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
What we cannot put right
It helps to know what we cannot do:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
