Looking after it afterwards
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Bath re-enamelling in Knolton without replacing anything
Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and we can resurface acrylic baths as well. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. We work on pressed steel baths, Victorian roll-tops and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people contact us are several chips and rust patches and a coating lifting around the plughole.
The work is guaranteed for twelve months. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

What we do, step by step
Visits start with a quick look at the job together. After that, protection goes down around the work area and we start. You can expect it to take the best part of a day.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
How to prepare
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
- Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
- Let us know about parking or access

Advice
Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.

What a repair cannot fix

- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Holes rusted through the metal
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)

Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt isn’t a disaster. We take the old repair out and do it properly, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. Prices are worked out job by job. The main factors are:
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
- The material and finish
- Doing more than one item at once
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, especially compared with replacing and refitting. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.
Getting a price from pictures
Two or three clear photos are typically enough. It helps if you send:
- Something in shot to show the size
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through.
Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Knolton
The gloss on enamel is thin, and every scrub with an abrasive cleaner takes a little away. After years of use, the surface becomes porous and stains easily.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- A coating lifting around the plughole
- A roll-top that is seen better days
