Bath re-enamelling in Holmewood without replacing anything
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, and we take our time over it. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel baths, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and people most frequently call us about worn patches where water runs and sits and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough.
You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Holmewood as everywhere else we work.

Holmewood questions
Do you cover the entire of Derbyshire?
Across the UK, and that includes Holmewood. Prices don’t change with location.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes. We carry out repairs for homeowners, landlords, letting agents, builders and businesses.
Will the price change on the day?
We’ll show you and explain before doing anything extra. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out.
Can I get a quote without a visit?
In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the pictures cannot show what we need.
Do you work in Holmewood?
Yes. We work across the UK and travel to Holmewood and the rest of Derbyshire. Send photos and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. We resurface it in place, so the tiles and taps stay put.
What do you need from me?
Send pictures through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will take it from there.
For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Rented homes see more wear and tear, and replacing items every time a tenant leaves is expensive. A repair between tenancies is a cheaper way to keep the property in good order.
DIY kit or professional repair?
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are the classic candidate for re-enamelling. The body lasts for generations; only the enamel wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.

Do you need bath re-enamelling in Holmewood?
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Send us a photo if you notice any of these:
- Wear marks under the taps
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A coloured bath you want in white
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
What your quote should include
- Whether the price covers travel
- Aftercare advice
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What prep work is covered
Keeping it looking good
Aftercare is simple, and it makes a real difference:
- Do not let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Avoid suction-cup mats
Use mild, non-abrasive cleaners, avoid suction bath mats, and don’t leave bottles or razors standing on the surface.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Resurfacing sooner means less repair work first.
How it works
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes most of the day. We tidy up before we leave and tell you when it’s ready to use.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
How to prepare
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
- Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
Ask for a price
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the whole item, send them to us with your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed quote. Quotes are free and you are under no obligation.
