About our bath re-enamelling in Longnor
After cleaning, repairing and priming, we spray on the new finish. The preparation is what makes it last, so we don’t cut corners on it. If you are dealing with staining under the taps and around the waste and thin, worn enamel in places, we can typically put it right, whatever the material.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. Just call us if there is a problem and we’ll sort it.

For landlords and businesses
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out pictures. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
Housing associations and facilities teams use us for planned and reactive repairs in Shropshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which is easier on the people living there.
What your bath is made of matters
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel often rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Repair or replace: which is better?
Replacing a bath generally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Resurfacing is one technician, normally in a day, with the bath ready the following day. Resurfacing from £350, with every job priced individually. There are no surprise extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

What bath re-enamelling costs
Resurfacing from £350. We price every job individually, from your pictures. The main factors are:
- Access to the area
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- The size and number of damaged areas
- Any earlier repairs that need removing first
The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before booking.
How to get a fixed quote
Before you send pictures, a few simple things make all the difference:
- A wider photo showing the entire bath
- Daylight if possible, and no flash reflection
- Any details about the material
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
Send us pictures of the damage and a wider shot of the whole item, with your SY5 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Your questions about bath re-enamelling in Longnor
Do I have to be there?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.
Can you do the outside of a roll-top?
Yes, often. The inside is resurfaced, and we can refinish the outside as well.
Do you need to take the bath out?
Not at all. Everything is done in your bathroom, with the room protected and ventilated.
Can pets and children be at home?
On the day, the room should be kept clear of pets and children.
What do you need from me?
A close-up, a wider photo and your postcode. After that, we just agree a date.
Which areas do you work in?
We work UK-wide. Our prices are the same everywhere.
I’m a tenant. Can you help?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Do you work in Longnor?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Longnor for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.

When we’d advise against a repair
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:

- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Damage hidden under a previous coating, until it’s stripped back
Send us pictures and we’ll tell you honestly.
Materials we work on in Longnor
- Cast iron baths
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Acrylic baths
- Basins & shower trays
Aftercare tips
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Repair dripping taps early
- Stick to gentle, non-abrasive cleaners
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
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.
Rust spots on a worn bath get worse with time and make the job bigger. It’s simpler to resurface before they spread.
What we are called out for in Longnor
By the time a bath is a few decades old, it may have a mix of issues: worn patches, chips, rust spots and stains. Resurfacing sorts them out together.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A coloured bath you want in white
- A roll-top that’s seen better days
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A coating lifting around the plughole
