Bath re-enamelling & resurfacing in Londonderry, Derry
We travel to Londonderry for full bath re-enamelling and resurfacing. Nothing is taken out, and the work is guaranteed.

- An old resurfacing that’s failing
How we handle bath re-enamelling in Londonderry
The bath stays where it is, so the taps, tiles and plumbing are not touched. It normally takes one visit, and can be used again the day after. Our technicians work on basins & shower trays, cast iron baths and acrylic baths, and the jobs we see most are a period or roll-top bath worth keeping and a bath that stays dull however much you clean it.
The work is covered for a year after we finish. If anything is not right, ring us and we will come back.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Do not leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. After that, a soft cloth and washing-up liquid is all it needs.
The longer worn enamel is left, the rougher it gets, and any rust spreads underneath. Acting earlier keeps the preparation simpler.
For landlords and businesses
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Landlords, letting agents and housing providers in Londonderry use us as well as householders. Repairing between tenancies keeps void periods short, and it typically costs far less than a refit.
What we do, step by step
On the day, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job normally takes a full day. We tidy up before we leave and let you know when you can use it again.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- The bath is cleaned, degreased and any chips or rust repaired.
- We prepare the surface and apply a bonding primer.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- Once cured, normally by the following day, the bath is ready.
Before we arrive
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Let the surface dry out before the visit
- Let us know which floor the room is on

Related advice
Should I try a DIY kit first?
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.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
FAQs for Londonderry
Is it safe with children and pets around?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
What happens if you find more damage?
Your quote covers the damage in the pictures. If there is more, we’ll tell you before starting.
Is repairing better than replacing?
Typically, when the rest is in good condition. A repair avoids removal and making good. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Someone resurfaced my bath and it’s peeling. Can you help?
Normally, yes. The old coating comes off before we resurface it. Mention it when you send pictures.
Do the materials smell?
There can be some smell while we work, which is why we ventilate. It fades as everything cures.
Is it messy?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
Do you do work for letting agents?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Londonderry?
Many baths we resurface have simply been well used, and only the surface is worn. Underneath, a cast iron or steel bath is normally as strong as ever.
The things clients usually mention when they call include:
- Stains that will not shift
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- A period or roll-top bath worth keeping
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
What to look for in a quote
- What aftercare is recommended
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
- Whether they match the colour on site

What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
A cast iron bath is heavy enough that most people never want to move it. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that’s what we repair.
Roll-top and period baths
We can resurface a roll-top inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. A fixed quote means you know the cost before booking. We take into account:
- The material
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
We do not add extras on the day. What we quote from your pictures is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Getting a price from pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute. Try to send:
- Your postcode, so we can check dates
- Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
- The material, if you know it
- Natural light rather than flash
To get a price, send two or three photos through our quote form or call us. We will tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.
Why repair rather than replace?
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 normally wins. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Send pictures and you will get a fixed figure.
