Work for landlords and builders
Letting agents often send us photos straight from the inventory. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we liaise with tenants about access if you’d like us to.
Hotels, guest houses and holiday lets cannot afford rooms out of action for long, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We can work around your bookings.
Bath re-enamelling in Millhouses, done in place
Cast iron, steel, acrylic, roll-top and period baths can all be resurfaced. Several coats of finish go on over a bonding primer, after the bath has been cleaned, repaired and keyed. Typical jobs include several chips and rust patches and staining under the taps and around the waste, on cast iron baths, acrylic baths and basins & shower trays.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, and the outside can be refinished too.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, once any rust has been treated. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we pay close attention there.
Aftercare tips
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- Respect the curing time we give you
- Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth
- Don’t leave bottles, razors or sponges standing on the surface
- A quick wipe after use keeps limescale away
Wait for the curing time we give you before the first bath. Then, gentle cleaning with a soft cloth is enough.
Avoid scrubbing a dull bath with abrasive cleaners. It just wears the enamel further.
How the visit works
We work cleanly and quietly, so you can carry on at home. Protection goes down first, then the job itself takes the best part of a day. Before we leave, we explain the curing time and the aftercare.
- First we look the bath over and confirm the finish.
- Taps, tiles and the floor are masked off.
- We degrease the bath, fix any damage and key the surface.
- We apply the primer and then the finish coats.
- We remove the masking, tidy up and give you the curing time.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about parking, stairs or access
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Move bottles, mats and clutter away from the area
Getting a price
Ring 0345 017 0787, or send us photos through the quote form. With a clear picture of the damage and one of the entire bath, we can give you a fixed price the same day in most cases.

Millhouses: your questions answered
How much does bath re-enamelling cost in Millhouses?
Prices start from £350. Every job gets a fixed quote from your photos. Send a close-up and a picture of the whole item and your postcode.
How long is the bath unusable?
Typically one day, with the bath ready the following day. A badly pitted bath can need a second day.
Will there be fumes?
Some odour is normal while we spray, so we ventilate the room. It clears as the finish cures.
Can you redo someone else’s repair?
Generally, yes. Let us know what was used before.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Will there be a smell?
It depends on the job, but frequently a little. Ventilation keeps it to a minimum, and it soon fades.
Do you work in Millhouses?
We do. We send a technician to Millhouses for every job, and the price is the same as everywhere else.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so nothing else is disturbed.
