Bath re-enamelling in Long Riston, done in place
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which would be difficult and expensive to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. We work on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and cast iron baths, and people most frequently call us about a bath that stays dull however much you clean it and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
A one-year guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but the repairs we redo most often are DIY ones that have discoloured or lifted. Doing it properly first is generally the cheaper route.
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.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You will know the full cost before booking. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- How many areas need work
- Doing more than one item at once
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
A repair normally costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send pictures and we will give you the exact figure.
Send photos for a quote
You can normally get a fixed quote without us visiting. To make it quick:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- One picture of the entire bath
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Call 0345 017 0787 or use the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can price the job the same day in most cases.
Questions from Long Riston
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes. Inside and out.
Can you resurface a pink bath in white?
Yes. Coloured baths can be resurfaced in white, and the basin and toilet can be done too.
Can you price it without visiting?
Typically, yes. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.
Is a repair better than a new one?
Usually, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. If replacing would be better, we will say so.
How long will the bath be out of use?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the next day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Are you accredited?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

What happens on the day
You don’t need to empty the room beforehand. Everything we use comes in the van with us, put protection down and get going once we’ve agreed what we’re doing. It typically takes most of the day, and you can get on with other things while we’re there.
- We check the bath and agree the finish with you.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
- Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings

Related advice
Do you need bath re-enamelling in Long Riston?
Enamel doesn’t fail overnight. Years of cleaning, hard water and hot baths wear the gloss away, typically first under the taps and around the waste.
Look out for these signs:
- Brown or grey marks that do not clean off
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- Several chips and rust patches
- An old resurfacing that’s failing
Before you book anyone
- What happens if the damage is worse than the photos show
- If travel is included in the price
- How long it needs to cure
- How your room will be protected
Looking after it afterwards
So the finish stays in good condition:
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- Don’t use the bath until it has fully cured
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Fix dripping taps quickly.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time, and each one adds to the preparation. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.
Honest limits
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Acrylic that moves when you stand in it
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
- A bath that’s rusted through
If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.
Materials we repair
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Victorian roll-tops
Different materials, different repairs
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
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.
