Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Kings Clipstone, Nottinghamshire
Local bath re-enamelling for Kings Clipstone: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350
- Several chips and rust patches
- Wear marks under the taps
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price is based on:
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
- What kind of damage it is
- Unusual colours or finishes
Instead of hourly rates, we price the whole job up front. It depends on the damage, the material and access, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Getting a price from photos
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- One picture of the entire bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- Details of any past repairs
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote.
Bath re-enamelling at your home in Kings Clipstone
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Common call-outs are for staining under the taps and around the waste and a coloured bath you want in white, in Victorian roll-tops, basins & shower trays and pressed steel baths.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Kings Clipstone questions
Can pets and children be at home?
Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit. Everywhere else in the home is fine.
Can a failed resurfacing be redone?
Yes, we do this regularly. Stripping the old coating adds time, so it’s reflected in the quote.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it is not worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
Will you leave a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Are there extra charges for Kings Clipstone?
There’s no separate call-out charge. The fixed quote covers the visit and the work.
How long does re-enamelling last?
That depends on preparation and how the bath is treated. With good preparation and gentle cleaning it lasts a long time, and our work is guaranteed for a year.
Will the price change on the day?
The price is fixed for what the photos show. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Tell us what was done before.
DIY kit or professional repair?
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and do not use it until it has fully cured. If it fails, we can still put it right.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
For landlords and businesses
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets can’t afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Letting agents often send us pictures straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath usually involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and normally one day, with the bath ready the day after. Our bath re-enamelling starts from £350. No two jobs are quite the same, 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.

When we would advise against a repair
We will not take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:
- A bath split right through the body
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A poorly supported acrylic bath, until it’s firmed up
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
What we work on
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Basins & shower trays
What we’re called out for in Kings Clipstone
Once enamel loses its gloss, it stains more easily, and cleaning harder only makes it worse. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
If you can see any of these, send us a picture:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- Stains that won’t shift
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Thin, worn enamel in places
What to look for in a quote
- Whether they match the colour on site
- How to care for the finish
- If travel is included in the price
- When it can be used again

Advice
Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Under the enamel of a steel bath is thin metal. Once a chip exposes it, rust follows quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
