Bath re-enamelling in Lower Denby, done in place
We resurface cast iron, steel and acrylic baths, including roll-tops and period baths. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Our repair technicians work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays, and common reasons people get in touch are a peeling or bubbling previous coating and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we’ll explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

What else we do in Lower Denby
Should you replace it?
If you like your bathroom but not your bath’s surface, resurfacing is the simplest answer. Tiles, panels and taps stay put. Prices start from £350. A few things move the price: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Prices and what affects them
Prices start from £350. We charge the same across the UK, including Lower Denby. The price reflects:
- How many items we do on one visit
- Unusual colours or finishes
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
- What the surface is made of
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one is priced on its own. What’s damaged, how badly and how easy it is to reach all make a difference, and doing several things on one visit costs less than separate visits.
How to get a fixed price
Almost every job we do is priced from pictures. This is what to send:
- Where you are, by postcode
- Natural light rather than flash
- A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
We price from pictures so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through, and we will come back with a fixed figure.
Keeping it looking good
How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Rinse off hair dye, oils and bath bombs right away
- Have chips seen to early
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
Dry the bath after use if possible, especially in hard water areas, and rinse away any product left on the surface.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.

It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- A bath in a colour that no longer suits
- An original cast iron bath that needs restoring
- A bath that stays dull however much you clean it
What your quote should include
- When it can be used again
- If travel is included in the price
- A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
- What aftercare is recommended
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair won’t last.
Honest limits
A repair isn’t right for every job, for example:
- Steel that has corroded right through
- An acrylic bath that flexes badly underfoot
- Problems we can’t see until an old finish comes off
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly.
