Bath re-enamelling in Napley without replacing anything

Cast iron and steel baths are ideal for re-enamelling, and acrylic baths can be resurfaced too. The result is a smooth, even, glossy finish. If you’re dealing with an old resurfacing that’s failing and a period or roll-top bath worth keeping, we can usually put it right, on basins & shower trays, pressed steel baths and Victorian roll-tops alike.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee in Napley and across Shropshire.

What affects the price in Napley

Prices start from £350. Each job gets its own fixed quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • Doing more than one item at once
  • The colour and finish to match
  • What kind of damage it is

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

Getting a price from photos

Good photos mean an accurate price. Here’s what helps:

  • A coin beside the damage so we can judge size
  • Details of any past repairs
  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Any details about the material

A quote takes minutes to ask for: take one close-up and one wider shot of the bath, add your postcode and send them over. What comes back is a fixed quote, not a guess.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, and the work is guaranteed.

If you’re set on a kit, follow its instructions closely, ensure the area is clean and completely dry, and give it the full curing time. If it doesn’t work out, we can still repair it properly.

Keeping it looking good

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Keep toiletries on a shelf rather than in the bath
  • Fix dripping taps quickly
  • Wipe the bath dry after use in hard water areas
  • Use washing-up liquid and a soft cloth

Treat the new finish gently at first: let it cure fully, then use mild cleaners only. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.

On a worn bath, rust spots keep spreading and make the job bigger. Resurfacing before they spread keeps it simpler.

The process

Your technician turns up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take the best part of a day, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. The bathroom is protected and ventilation set up.
  2. We remove the old silicone and deep clean the bath.
  3. We repair chips, rust spots and pitting.
  4. The surface is keyed and primed for the new finish.
  5. The new finish is sprayed on in several coats and left to cure.

Before we arrive

  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive
  • Keep children and pets away from the room on the day
  • Let us know about parking or access

Napley questions

Can tenants book a repair?

Yes. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.

What happens if you find more damage?

It’s rare, but if it happens we talk to you first. The price only changes if you agree.

It’s been repaired before. Can you still fix it?

Generally, yes. The old repair comes out first.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Of course, and it usually saves money. Just add the extra items to your photos and we will quote them together.

What areas do you cover?

Across the UK, and that includes Napley. Prices do not change with location.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

Can you price it without visiting?

Yes, almost always. Clear photos let us give you a fixed quote without visiting.

Do you come to Napley?

Yes. We cover the whole UK and come to Napley. Send pictures and we’ll quote, or call 0345 017 0787.

Work for landlords and builders

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. Several plots can be done in one visit to keep costs down.

We carry out planned and one-off repairs for housing associations and facilities teams in Shropshire and across the UK. Repairing in place avoids the disruption of a replacement, which matters when someone is living in the home.

What we are called out for in Napley

Frequently the bath has just had decades of use, and only the surface is worn. The body of the bath is typically perfectly sound.

Clients usually contact us about:

  • Wear marks under the taps
  • Stains that won’t shift
  • An old resurfacing that is failing
  • Enamel that’s lost its shine and feels rough

Questions to ask before booking

  • Who turns up on the day
  • A fixed price, and whether VAT is included
  • What aftercare is recommended
  • The length of the guarantee and what it covers

Choosing a repair company

Different materials, different repairs

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. Rust around the waste is common on steel, so we check it carefully.
