Bath Re-enamelling in Long Marton
Bath re-enamelling in Long Marton without the cost of replacing. Send us pictures for a fixed price, then book a visit.
- Resurfacing from £350
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- A coloured bath you want in white
How to care for the repair
To keep it looking its best for years:
- Leave the bath for the full curing time before using it
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Wipe the bath dry after use where you can, especially in hard water areas, and rinse off any bath products.
On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Bath re-enamelling in Long Marton without replacing anything
We re-enamel a lot of period and roll-top baths, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We are often asked to fix chips and rust in more than one place and enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough, across basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee.

Questions from Long Marton
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
Is the work guaranteed?
Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.
Does re-enamelling smell?
A little, during the work. We set up ventilation and the smell fades as it cures.
Is there any odour?
Some materials have a smell while they’re applied, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the materials cure.
How soon can you come?
Your quote comes with available dates. Tell us if you need it done quickly.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Generally one day, with the bath ready the next day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Can you repair something that is been repaired before?
Most of the time. Tell us what was done before and we will plan for it.
Can you make a coloured bath white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and we can do the rest of the suite as well.
When to call us in Long Marton
A dull surface stains and holds dirt, and scrubbing it wears it down further. That’s the point where re-enamelling makes sense.
Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:
- A peeling or bubbling previous coating
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Worn patches where water runs and sits
- An outdated colour you’d like to change
Questions to ask before booking
- Whether a trained technician does the job
- How the colour is matched
- What protection goes down before work starts
- How long it needs to cure
The process
Once we’re through the door, we keep the work contained to the one room. Surfaces nearby are masked off, the work takes the best part of a day, and we finish with a tidy-up and a look at the finished work together.
- The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Photos are enough for us to price nearly every job: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will reply with a fixed price.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Prices start from £350. There is no charge for travel to Long Marton. The price comes down to:
- What the surface is made of
- How many items we do on one visit
- The type of damage
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
The price reflects the work involved, not where you live. You will see the full price before you book, with nothing added on the day.
Quotes from your pictures
Photographing the damage takes a minute, and it saves a visit. Please include:
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the whole bath, we can price the job without visiting.
What your bath is made of matters
Cast iron
Re-enamelling suits cast iron baths perfectly. They’re built to last, and only the surface wears, so a new finish makes them look new again.
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
What a repair cannot fix
Not everything can be repaired, and we will tell you before we start. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaking taps or wastes (a plumber’s job)
- Steel that has corroded right through
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Cast iron baths
- Acrylic baths
Repair or replace: which is better?
A refit takes several trades and several days. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, and the bath can be used the day after. Prices start from £350. Instead of hourly rates, we price the entire job up front. Damage, material and access decide it.
What you get with us
- We will tell you if it’s not worth repairing
- Repair technicians who travel to you, UK-wide
- Accredited with CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor
- Colour-matched on site

DIY kit or professional repair?
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Getting it right first time is generally cheaper.
