The process
Once we’re through the door, the aim is to do the job without disturbing the rest of your home. We mask off everything nearby, the work takes the best part of a day, depending on what we find, and we finish by cleaning up and talking you through the result.
- We mask and protect the room and ventilate it.
- 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.
- We leave it to cure, and it’s generally ready the following day.
How to prepare
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Mention any parking restrictions or tricky access
- Have somewhere for us to park nearby if possible

We charge the same wherever you are, so there’s no premium for Netherton. What changes the price is the job itself: the material, the amount of damage and how many items.

FAQs for Netherton
Which areas do you work in?
We cover the entire UK, including Netherton and the rest of Shropshire. Send your postcode with your pictures and we’ll confirm dates.
How do I book?
Some pictures, your postcode and how to reach you. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Does someone need to be in?
Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. After that, you can carry on with your day.
Do you work for landlords and businesses?
Yes, often. We quote for multiple addresses and fit around tenancy changeovers.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. A repair avoids removal and making good. If replacing would be better, we’ll say so.
Do you need to take the bath out?
No. It’s re-enamelled where it stands, so the tiles and taps stay put.
When can you do it?
We’ll give you dates with your quote. If it’s urgent, say so and we will do what we can.
Can you re-enamel a roll-top bath?
Yes, roll-tops are a big part of our work. We resurface the inside, and the outside can be refinished too.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
The difference between a kit and a professional repair is mostly in the preparation and colour. We prepare the area properly, mix the colour on site and polish the finish to match, then guarantee it for a year.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
Keeping it looking good
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Avoid suction-cup mats
- Don’t let dyes or oils sit on the finish
- Don’t leave a chip unrepaired
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
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.
Don’t try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.

Repairs by material
Roll-top and period baths
Freestanding roll-tops can be done inside and out, with the outside refinished as well.
Acrylic
Acrylic is light and warm to the touch, but it needs firm support underneath. Cracks are strengthened from behind before the front is finished.

What a repair can’t fix
A repair is not always the answer, and we would rather say so up front. Repairs won’t solve:
- Leaks from fittings rather than the bath
- A cast iron or steel bath that’s cracked right through
- Steel that has corroded right through
If in doubt, send photos and we’ll say what we think before booking.
