Bath re-enamelling in Little Bowden without replacing anything
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel baths, basins & shower trays and acrylic baths, and common reasons people contact us are a bath in a colour that no longer suits and worn patches where water runs and sits.
All our work is covered by our one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Northamptonshire.

What else we do in Little Bowden
How the visit works
Nothing needs to be moved out of the room. We bring everything we need with us, lay protective sheets and get going once we have agreed what we are doing. Most jobs take most of the day, and you’re welcome to carry on with your day while we work.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- Primer and finish coats are applied.
- The masking comes off, we tidy up and tell you when it can be used.
Getting ready for the visit
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
Getting a price
Send us a photo of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your LE16 postcode, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Little Bowden: your questions answered
Will it make a mess?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we leave the room clean.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
How soon can you come?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. We’ll offer you dates when we send your quote.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Yes, but check with your landlord or agent first. Landlords are frequently glad to have it sorted.
Can you quote from photos?
Nearly always. If pictures do not show enough, we’ll ask for another angle.
Is there a guarantee?
All our work carries our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
In most cases, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. If it isn’t worth repairing, we’ll tell you.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths, ready the day after. We will confirm timings when we quote.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and don’t use it until it has fully cured. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll 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, a professional repair is worth it.
How to care for the repair
Much of the damage we repair could have been avoided. A few tips:
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Get any chip repaired quickly
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
A quick rinse and wipe after use helps, particularly where water is hard, so limescale cannot build up.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
Repair or replace in Little Bowden?
Getting a cast iron bath out is hard work: it’s very heavy, may need breaking up, and the replacement can be costly. Resurfacing in place avoids that entirely. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and doing several items at once reduces it.
What you get with us
- We leave the room as we found it
- Honest advice, even when it means no job
- No extra charge for your area
- Free fixed quotes from pictures

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Access to the area
- How many areas need work
- The material
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
A repair is priced on what needs doing, not your postcode. The full price is agreed before booking, with nothing added on the day.
Getting a price from photos
A couple of clear pictures is all it takes. It helps if you send:
- Details of any past repairs
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A clear, close picture of the problem area
- A picture taken from further back
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: send a close-up, a wider shot and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.
When to call us in Little Bowden
The gloss on enamel is thin, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
Keep an eye out for these signs:
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- An old resurfacing that is failing
- A dull, rough surface that won’t come clean
Questions to ask before you book
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- If travel is included in the price
- How to look after the finish
- What protection goes down before work starts
