Bath re-enamelling in Little Musgrave without replacing anything
Re-enamelling gives a worn bath a new glossy surface without a refit. It suits baths that are dull, stained, rough or chipped all over. We work on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops, and the jobs we see most are a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and chips and rust in more than one place.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there is a problem with the repair within the year, we return and sort it.

DIY kit or professional repair?
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that’s fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it doesn’t stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send photos, as it can add time.
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.
When we would advise against a repair
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair will not do:
- A metal bath with a through crack
- Plumbing leaks, which need a plumber
- A bath that’s rusted through
Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Acrylic baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Cast iron baths

There is not much you need to do on the day. Let us in and show us the room, and we’ll take it from there. The job generally runs to a full day.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- Everything around the bath is masked and covered.
- The bath is degreased, repaired and keyed.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit

- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

FAQs for Little Musgrave
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
What happens after I send photos?
We come back with a fixed quote. You are under no obligation.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and we clean up when we’ve finished.
How long does re-enamelling take?
One day for most baths, ready the following day. We give you timings with the quote.
Does re-enamelling smell?

How we price bath re-enamelling
Resurfacing from £350. We give every job a fixed quote from pictures. This is what makes a difference:
- How hard the colour is to match
- What kind of damage it is
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
The price depends on the type and amount of damage, what it’s made of and how many items we do on one visit. We give a fixed quote from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what we find most useful:
- What it’s made of, if you know
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- Something in shot to show the size
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
You don’t need a survey visit. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.
Keeping it looking good
A little care keeps the finish looking good. We recommend:
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Fix dripping taps quickly
Rinse the bath and wipe it over after use, especially in hard water areas, to stop limescale building up.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
