Repair or replace in Kirk Ireton?
Replacement only makes sense in a few cases: if the bath is cracked through, if you want a different size or shape, or if you’re refitting the whole room anyway. Otherwise, resurfacing usually wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Bath re-enamelling at your home in Kirk Ireton
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without taking anything out. It’s the answer when the entire bath is tired rather than one spot. We work on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and people most frequently call us about a bath in a colour that no longer suits and stains that won’t shift.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are covered after the visit.

Aftercare tips
It’s all simple stuff:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- Store bottles off the bath
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
Rinse away dyes, oils and bath bombs straight after use, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Worn enamel only gets rougher with time, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
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.
Acrylic
Acrylic feels warm and is light, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from photos. This is what makes a difference:
- How much damage there is
- The material and finish
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- How easy the damage is to reach
A repair usually costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send pictures and we’ll give you the exact figure.
Send pictures for a quote
It only takes a minute to photograph the damage, and it saves a visit. Try to send:
- Any details about the material
- Where you are, by postcode
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
No survey visit is needed: we price from photos. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and you’ll get a fixed figure back.
What happens on the day
We agree an arrival time beforehand. Once we’re there, the work takes the best part of a day for most jobs. We leave the room clean and ready to use once it has cured.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.
Getting ready for the visit
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

When a repair is not the answer

- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Problems we cannot see until an old finish comes off

What else we do in Kirk Ireton
DIY repairs versus a professional job
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

In most cases. We strip the failing coating and resurface it properly. Mention it when you send pictures.

Yes. We can resurface a coloured bath in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.

A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Do I need to be at home?
We need someone to let us in. You do not need to watch us work.
