About our bath re-enamelling in Nettleton Hill
We clean, repair and prime the bath before spraying the new finish. Most of the work, and most of the durability, is in the preparation, and we take our time over it. We work on pressed steel baths, acrylic baths and Victorian roll-tops, and common reasons people contact us are worn patches where water runs and sits and an outdated colour you’d like to change.
Your repair is guaranteed for a year, as with every job we do.

Can I add another job to the visit?

A well-prepared finish lasts a long time if it’s looked after. Gentle cleaning, no suction mats.
Repairing versus replacing in Nettleton Hill
Replacing a bath normally involves a plumber, a fitter and a tiler. Re-enamelling takes one technician and generally one day, with the bath ready the following day. Prices start from £350. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. We give a fixed price from your photos, so you know the cost before booking.

DIY repairs versus a professional job
It’s natural to want to try a repair yourself. The risk is that a kit repair hides the damage for a while, then fails, and then the old filler has to be removed first.
If you’ve already tried a DIY fix, that is fine. We remove the old filler and start again, so it does not stop a professional repair. It does add a little time, so tell us about it when you send pictures.

Materials and what they mean for the repair
Acrylic
We resurface acrylic baths as well, with a coating system suited to acrylic. It must be solid and not flex underfoot.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel baths take a new finish well, as long as any rust is dealt with first. Steel frequently rusts by the plughole, so we check it carefully.
Landlord and trade work in Nettleton Hill
If you manage property in Nettleton Hill, we’ll quote for several properties at once. Send pictures for each one and we’ll come back with a combined price.
Hospitality businesses need rooms back in use quickly, so most of our work is done in a single visit. We will fit around changeovers where we can.
Keeping it looking good
Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:
- A dripping tap should be fixed promptly
- Store bottles off the bath
- Keep suction mats out of the bath
- Dry the bath after use to stop limescale
Treat the new finish gently at first: give it the full curing time, then clean it gently. After that, no abrasives and no suction mats.
Do not try to scrub a worn bath back to shine. It just wears the enamel further.
