Bath re-enamelling in Mathersgrave, done in place
Many of the baths we re-enamel are period roll-tops, which are heavy, hard to move and costly to replace. Resurfacing them in place keeps the original bath. If you’re dealing with an outdated colour you’d like to change and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can typically put it right.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

What else we do in Mathersgrave
Can I fix it myself?
A DIY attempt is not a disaster. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. Just mention it when you send pictures, as it can add time.
You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, 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 isn’t prepared the repair won’t last.
How it works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the work takes a full day. At the end we talk you through the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we protect the bathroom and set up ventilation.
- We clean and degrease the bath and repair any chips or rust.
- The surface is prepared and a bonding primer applied.
- We spray on the new enamel finish in several coats.
- The bath is left to cure and can normally be used the next day.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
How to get a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from pictures: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we will come back to you with a fixed figure.

Mathersgrave questions
Is there a smell?
Yes, while we are applying the finish. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
What information do you need?
Photos of the damage, a picture of the whole bath and your postcode. Then we will agree a date.
Do you work in Mathersgrave?
Yes, we do. We send a technician to Mathersgrave for every job, with no extra charge for travel.
Is there any odour?
It depends on the job, but often a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Is it messy?
No. The work area is masked and covered, and we take our waste away with us.
What areas do you cover?
All of Derbyshire, and the rest of the UK. Travel is included in the price.
Can pets and children be at home?
Just keep them out of the work area. We will let you know when it’s safe to use again.
Are you accredited?
We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.
What your bath is made of matters
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Cast iron
Cast iron baths are so heavy that repairing in place makes obvious sense. The enamel is the part that wears or chips, and that is what we repair.
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- A bath that’s rusted through
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- Anything hidden under an old coating, until we remove it
Send us photos and we will tell you honestly.
Materials we repair
- Victorian roll-tops
- Pressed steel baths
- Basins & shower trays
- Acrylic baths
- Cast iron baths
How to look after the repair
Good habits make a big difference to how long a repair lasts. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
- Store bottles off the bath
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
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.
Leave a peeling coating alone. Water gets under it and the damage spreads, so it’s better to have it stripped and redone.
