Advice
Bath re-enamelling in Milking Bank, done in place
After re-enamelling, the bath has a smooth, glossy, new-looking surface, without any of the disruption of replacing it. It’s ideal if you like your bathroom but not the state of the bath. Common call-outs are for a coloured bath you want in white and a peeling or bubbling previous coating, in pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
Every job is backed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you live. If something goes wrong with the work, we come back.

Prices and what affects them
Resurfacing from £350. You will not pay by the hour. The price depends on:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- The material and finish
- Where the damage is and how we get to it
We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.
Quotes from your photos
You can take the photos on your phone, there is no need for anything special. Ensure they show:
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- A wider photo showing the whole bath
- A close-up of the damage, in focus
- Any details about the material
For a price in Milking Bank, the easiest route is pictures: one close up, one from further back, plus your postcode. We reply with a fixed quote and our next available dates.
Questions from Milking Bank
Will there be fumes?
A little, during the work. Ventilation keeps it down, and it fades as the finish cures.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Ask your landlord first, and we can send them the quote if that helps.
Will the price change on the day?
We stop, show you and agree any change before carrying on. Nothing extra is done without your say-so.
Does the bath have to be removed?
No. We resurface it in place, so nothing else is disturbed.
How quickly can you book me in?
It depends on the time of year and where you are. Send pictures with your postcode and we will reply with the earliest dates.
Do I have to be there?
Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.
Can you fix a peeling bath coating?
Yes. Removing the old finish takes extra time, which we include in the price.
How do I get a price for bath re-enamelling in Milking Bank?

Signs you need bath re-enamelling in Milking Bank
Previous coatings can fail too, lifting by the plughole or blistering. We strip what’s failing and start again.
People generally call us after spotting something like this:
- A roll-top that is seen better days
- Staining under the taps and around the waste
- Chips and rust in more than one place
- Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough
Before booking anyone
- What happens if the damage is worse than the pictures show
- Who will actually do the work
- How the room is protected while they work
- Whether cleaning and preparation are in the price
Looking after it afterwards
A little care keeps the finish looking good. Our advice:
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
- Do not leave a chip unrepaired
Avoid hair dye, bath bombs and oils sitting on the surface, as they can stain. Repair dripping taps promptly.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It removes more of the surface and makes resurfacing more work.
Materials and what they mean for the repair
Pressed steel
Steel baths re-enamel well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it relies on good support. Repairs to cracks are reinforced from the back.
Should I try a DIY kit first?
Kits are cheap and easy to find, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
For a hairline mark somewhere you’ll never see, a kit may be enough. For anything you look at every day, anything that has rusted, cracked or holed, or anything on a coloured surface, it’s worth having it done properly.
