Bath Re-enamelling for Mabgate homes
Local bath re-enamelling for Mabgate: a fixed quote from photos, a tidy visit and a one-year guarantee.
- Resurfacing from £350

How we handle bath re-enamelling in Mabgate
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. Typical jobs include enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough and an old resurfacing that’s failing, on cast iron baths, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops.
All of our repairs are guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Most people are surprised how affordable a repair is, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Photos let us give you the exact figure.

Repairs by material
Pressed steel
Steel baths and trays have a thin metal body under the enamel. Exposed steel rusts quickly, so we treat and seal the metal before filling.
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, using a system that bonds to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot for the finish to last.
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.
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs often look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.
Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. There are no hourly rates or hidden extras. The price depends on:
- Doing more than one item at once
- How much damage there is
- How hard the colour is to match
- The material and finish
Our prices are the same across the UK, so there’s no premium for Mabgate. The job itself decides the price: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.
Getting a price from photos
You can take the pictures on your phone, there’s no need for anything special. Make sure they show:
- One sharp close-up of the damage
- A picture taken from further back
- Where you are, by postcode
- Details of any past repairs
Most clients in Mabgate get their price from photos. Tell us what happened and where you are, and we’ll send back a fixed quote and some dates.
When to call us in Mabgate
Enamel’s shine is only skin deep, and abrasive cleaning slowly wears it away. Eventually the surface turns porous and stains.
These are the problems we are asked about most:
- A dull, rough surface that will not come clean
- Thin, worn enamel in places
- Several chips and rust patches
- A coating lifting around the plughole

How it works
We begin by going over the job with you. Then the area is sheeted and masked and the work begins. It normally takes the best part of a day, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- We sheet, mask and ventilate the room.
- We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
- Chips, rust and pitting are repaired.
- The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
- Several coats of finish are sprayed on, then it cures until the following day.
Getting ready for the visit
- Let us know about parking or access
- Keep a parking space free if you can
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Aftercare tips
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Fix dripping taps quickly
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild detergent
- Wash away dyes and oils after use
- Store bottles off the bath
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further and makes resurfacing more work.
